TechRaptor: 3 / 10 by James Bentley

In Nightmare is a frustrating and dull horror experience that can't live up to the many ideas it tries to set up. This left me not only bored, but disappointed in what it could have been.

Explosion Network: 2.5 / 10 by Dylan Blight

If I'm being honest, I was glad it ate my save file and gave me a legit reason not to play it anymore.

COGconnected: 60 / 100 by Michael Chow

Overall, In Nightmare hits the mark. It fits its self-defined genre, and was an otherwise decent game. Its overabundance of mechanics and reliance on standard horror game features hold the title back from being more unique than it could be. Though In Nightmare should not supplant any of your favorite horror titles, the game’s narrative and attempt to differentiate itself through its visuals might just be enough to garner a curious horror game fan’s attention.
