Gray Dawn has been inspired by such games as Alone in the Dark, Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Amnesia  and The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. The game will have no zombies or monsters; developer Interactive Stone has opted for a more psychological approach to horror: We want to make a game that will mess with your feelings, defying the mundane logic.

The game takes place in 1910. You play a priest who’s suspected of murdering a young boy on whom he has performed an exorcism. The exorcism apparently fails, causing the boy to jump through a window and vanish. His body is never found.

To find absolution, the priest must search for the boy. In the process, demonic manifestations will remind him of his past sins and try to lure him into delusion.   

Gray Dawn will have story-driven puzzles and involve exploration of both real and unreal worlds. You’ll become trapped within strange events that involve both demonic possession and divine apparitions.

The game is being put together for PC/Windows with Unreal Engine 4 and will be released in 2016. The Kickstarter campaign, with a base goal of €50,000, will run until October 13th. Support may be added for PS4, XBox and VR if the first stretch goal is met. A Greenlight campaign is also in progress.

I've been with JA in one capacity or other since 2003. I'm currently website administrator. I'm also a digital artist (my avatar is one of my creations). I write reviews and articles, create graphics and basically help tend the site. It's work I enjoy very much. I love playing games of all kinds, but adventure and RPGs are my favorites (particularly scary/dark/unsettling ones). At the top of my list are The Cat Lady, The Longest Journey, Dreamfall, Still Life (first one only), Scratches and Culpa Innata. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool recluse and prefer the company of animals, hardware and ghosts to human beings (no offense). And no bio would be complete without my saying that I do NOT care for phones of ANY sort. Further, I think Dell computers are garbage and that Microsoft has become megalomaniacal.
