An over-reliance on jumpscares - some of which are too predictable or badly executed - definitely hinders some atmospheric horror, while new mechanics, like hiding or using tools, feel a little underused. While certainly one of Supermassive Games' best, The Devil In Me isn't perfect.

The story isn't exactly gripping or wholly unique, but it's more than entertaining, with endings much more satisfactory than the often disappointing resolutions of other DPAs. The story also far surpasses Man of Medan, Little Hope, and House of Ashes, with enough horror movie tropes to feel oddly comforting - while simultaneously also innovating on those very stereotypes. Even the unlikeable cast members have their merits, with enough depth of character to help players form the bond that will test their morals when it comes to keeping everyone alive.

The Devil In Me's characters and story also make this addition to the series a stand-out.
