An unique horror game by No Code, combining four separate stories. In Stories Untold you play as a person sitting in front of a computer, and your task is to acquaint yourself with a series of eerie recordings. In time, the protagonist immerses themselves in the stories so much that they begin to spot inexplicable things in the nooks of the shabby rooms. The game features a first-person view and you are free to look around your surroundings.
Stories Untold for PC is a horror game developed by an indie studio No Code and published by Devolver Digital. The game is a combination of four separate stories, including a remastered version of the studio's previous production, The House Abandon. The game is set in the 1980s.
Mechanics
Stories Untold features a firs-person view, which allows you to freely look around your surroundings. The protagonist you control sits in front of a computer and watches videotapes with eerie recordings. In time, they immerse themselves in the presented stories that they start to spot inexplicable things in the nooks of the shabby rooms. The game is set in varied locations (e.g. a bedroom and a radio station), which are all dimly lit, for example by a small lamp on a desk.
Technical aspects
The 3D visuals of Stories Untold for PC are of a very good quality. The game splendidly captures the atmosphere of the 1980s, in no small part thanks to the soundtrack.

Pure Nintendo: 9 / 10 by Jennifer Sheffield
Stories Untold is about the haunting feelings and stories we haven't told even ourselves. It's about unraveling the truth and facing our fears. For players looking for a new episodic thriller, Stories Untold was an amazing way to kick off 2020 on the Nintendo Switch.
TheSixthAxis: 8 / 10 by Aran Suddi
Stories Untold is a very interesting and engaging horror title, building a huge story that taps into your imagination before expertly drawing that scope back in. A couple of puzzles don't quite stick the landing, but the game is engaging over its three hours.
PlayStation LifeStyle: 8 / 10 by Annette Polis
Everything comes to a head in the final chapter. "The Last Session" does a serviceable job rolling my previous experiences into a cohesive yet predictable end. It may not have been a stunning revelation, however it was a satisfying one. All in all not a bad way to spend about three hours on a Saturday afternoon. Stories Untold is a great journey to take part in and one I'm glad to have taken.
