However, while this may seem like an intriguing concept to some, I found it to be incredibly dull as I was often just wandering around aimlessly, looking for something to photograph.Įven should you find a suitable subject for your photograph, that unfortunately isn’t the end of the rather uninspired proceedings.
A large focus of Martha is Dead is on photography. If you’re expecting Resident Evil style gunplay, then you might have to look elsewhere. Regrettably, even if you can look past the horrible stuff, enjoying the gameplay might be the next challenge you face. “I found the gameplay to be incredibly dull and was often just aimlessly looking for something to photograph.” However, should you find it is getting too much later on in your playthrough, the option is always accessible. You’re presented this option at the start, and I encourage anyone who dislikes gore to turn it on.
Luckily, for those who have a more nervous disposition, there is an option to censor the game. While you could argue that they add to the overall unease felt throughout the game, I felt that they were a little too gratuitous and unnecessary. They don’t offer anything particularly interesting to the story nor of substance to the game. Because even with them gone, there are scenes in Martha Is Dead that are designed entirely to gross the player out. In fact, their absence might even make it better. Sony even went a step further and removed some of the interactive elements.įortunately for those playing on PlayStation, it doesn’t feel as if you miss out on anything.
Before it had even launched, the game’s somewhat questionable graphic imagery was brought into question. Let’s get one thing out of the way: Martha Is Dead does not shy away from gore or disturbing imagery.

Sadly, Martha Is Dead has failed to live up to the hype due to its myriad of problems, bad gameplay and disappointing crashes. It promised horror fans – which of course includes myself – an intriguing and incredibly horrific experience with its creepy atmosphere, war-torn setting and disturbing imagery. Martha Is Dead has garnered quite a lot of interest after its initial trailer dropped.
