Our take on Thou Shalt Not Kill
The atmospheric presentation receives more attention than the game's scope: this is a 30-minute walking simulator built around one forest journey and a VHS tape. The visual, audio, and flashlight details describe its mood, but they do not indicate a long-form horror experience.
