Gloomwood is a first-person survival horror game with immersive sim elements, developed by Dillon Rogers and David Szymanski and published by New Blood Interactive. Inspired by classic games like “Thief” and “Deus Ex,” Gloomwood blends stealth, exploration, and strategic combat in a dark, atmospheric Victorian setting.
In the game, players explore a cursed city filled with twisted enemies, hidden secrets, and complex environments that encourage creative problem-solving. The game features a unique inventory system, stealth mechanics, and a retro-inspired visual style, evoking the look and feel of late 1990s and early 2000s PC games. Gloomwood has been praised for its nostalgic gameplay, eerie atmosphere, and intricate level design, appealing to fans of classic immersive sims and horror games alike.
- An intricate, hand-crafted city with freeform exploration – from towering rooftops down to hidden passages, the routes you take and paths you make, are your choice.
- A detailed stealth and sound system that tracks your light visibility and propagates noise accurately through the world. Tread lightly. Or prepare to get loud.
- A unique arsenal to meet any situation – a stealthy cane sword, six-shot revolver, folding shotgun, hand-placed traps, rope-slinging harpoon rifle and more.
- In-depth player interactivity, from leaning to eavesdrop, peeking through door cracks, checking the bullets in your firearms and mantling onto ledges.
- A mob of ghastly denizens and monsters with acute senses, like the sharp-clawed Crowmen and the fearsome, cadaver-seeking Corpse Duster.
