Whats the worst way to die? Anglerfish Review

Anglerfish is a horrifying yet mildly hilarious survival horror game. It’s one of the few games I’ve encountered with a mechanic that required me to die to progress, which definitely felt a little weird to get used to. But weirdness and unexpected scenarios provided a unique touch that made the game incredibly enjoyable. The story of Anglerfish starts with a group celebrating a friend’s upcoming wedding by holding a bachelor party at a local bar, the titular Anglerfish. On their way to the party, the group makes a friendly bet to see who will be the best man at the wedding by drinking and socializing with others. However, by the end of the night, this entire group of friends will be dead. See, Anglerfish might seem like a typical bar, but it’s secretly an ancient den of vampires thirsty for blood.

Have you ever been to a bachelor party that turns to hell? Well Anglerfish will prove that yours werent that bad, can you survive and escape the deadly trap? Anglerfish is a horror/action/adventure/puzzle game where you will have to find a way to escape the bar full of monsters and traps. It will take at least several tries, and each time you fail and die game will have something different in the next run for you.

Well,  Anglerfish is really a befitting name for this game, not as terrifying as the real thing but very mind numbing if you ask me. It was nothing short of what I was expecting heading into this game knowing this is the same team that did "The ER" (another Interesting game to say the least), but it still managed to go over my head, take a detour to the shop, buy me a drink, then rip my head off because I was foulish enough to take it. That's pretty much what I felt playing this game since I was foolish enough to think just for a secound this might just be a funny little game, until I went to the bathroom and tried to pick up a girl then ending up without a head on my shoulders.
