Narcosis Review (Xbox One)


Honor Code has released Narcosis for Xbox One. Read on.

Narcosis is a narrative-driven indie tale of horror that has made its way to consoles. The best element of Narcosis is that it will give you Goosebumps and scare you to death all from the comfort of your home. Gamers will take to the dark depths of the ocean and explore everything this horrifying tale has to offer.

If you don't have a ton of time to spend on a game, Narcosis delivers the most scares in the shortest amount of time. The linear, single-player story takes players on an epic adventure with several plot twists as you reach the conclusion of the story. As you make your way through the game, players have the chance to collect 20 items that help further the story and gives more insight into the game's characters. Once you complete the game, you can access the Open Air menu that unlocks in the Personnel tab for even more fun.

Narcosis is a survival horror game where gamers step into the role of an industrial diver. After a chaotic event, you find yourself at the bottom of the ocean floor trying to locate your lost team and a way to the surface. Your oxygen is running out and with only a small knife--you must defend yourself from all of the horrific sea creatures that stand in your path. However, the more you stress or struggle, the faster your oxygen will run out.

Narcosis offers a terrifying experience that completely isolates you while plaguing you with the unpredictability of your surrounding environment. You try to make your way across the ocean floor in a heavy suit with eerie sounds all around you. The game's visual and sound effects make you feel completely immersed in the story. Players follow a linear path with around 5 hours or less of gameplay. While there isn't a ton of replay value to Narcosis, outside of achievements and item collecting, the game does present a very terrifying experience that is worth a playthrough.

In the end, Narcosis is a simplistic game with an eerie story that pulls you into the dark. If you have ever wanted to explore what really lurks in the dark, then look no further than Narcosis. To learn more, visit the official Narcosis website.
