Our take on Rewind Or Die
The store-work setup gives the game a distinctive premise, but its description emphasizes the serial-killer threat, gore and horror atmosphere. The routine duties and puzzle-solving receive less attention, so the workplace simulation element may be smaller than the premise initially suggests.
What is Rewind Or Die?
Rewind Or Die is a horror game set in a British video rental shop with a retro VHS-store atmosphere.
After a co-worker fails to attend their shift, the player must stock shelves, serve difficult customers, deal with workplace problems and keep the store clean while a serial killer stalks the area. Store tasks sit alongside puzzles, unsettling phone calls, a watcher outside the front window and encounters with a distinctive enemy. The presentation includes fully voiced co-workers, graphic gore, blood-covered environments and dark comedy. The story has two obtainable endings, secrets and unlockable character-viewer models. Puzzle solutions require care, and the game centers on surviving a troubling day at work.
