When you want to grab a bottle and throw it to distract an enemy. It carries the DNA of the past but isn’t as obtuse or clunky. That’s really the best aspect of Gloomwood.
All of this is in service of the genuinely spooky vibe that echoes across the empty streets. Rendered in a low-poly aesthetic, Gloomwood is reminiscent of early PS1-style games with its chunky characters and weapon models. With phonographs being the only way to save during a level, death carries a lot of punishment. You don’t have the ammo to take out the amount present in the demo, but it’s nice to know that a slight mistake won’t spell a restart if you can react fast enough. Still, that shotgun does work wonders and those indescribable horrors won’t stand up to too many blasts. You can also try to be a total boss and go through levels without healing. Since there’s no auto-healing and checkpoints are very scarce, you’ll need to top off your health if you’re too low. From there, you’ll get a health bar to check your vitality and you’ll be able to interact with any items you’ve picked up. You’ll press tab and a backpack will come up on the screen in real-time. Even the inventory is handled in a similar fashion. Also, there’s no HUD, so you have to check your ammo by holding R. The demo contained a six-shot revolver and double-barrel shotgun, but you’ll need to manually reload it when you empty a clip. Where Gloomwood differentiates from Thief is that you have an arsenal for when things go south. You’ll skulk around this town gathering keys, solving some puzzles, and generally backstabbing foes so that they don’t bum rush you. Everything is dark, spooky, and absolutely dripping with atmosphere. There is more to this city than you can possibly imagine… The setting of Gloomwood is that of a Victorian-era town.
