I had low expectations for this upcoming FMV ‘interactive horror’ game, but its hour-long demo turned out to be one of the most entertaining things I’ve played all year

An unsettling multi-tentacled specimen was encountered within an unconscious woman during an operation, initially evoking horror. However, after multiple encounters, the reaction shifted from fear to laughter due to the understanding of the game Dead Reset, an FMV interactive horror movie that combines elements of horror and absurdity, set to be released on Steam on September 11. The game blends horror with humor and challenges conventional FMV game design.
