My review will be based upon the PS5 version of the game running in 4K/30fps mode (including the images) until I talk about the 60fps and PS4 versions towards the end. Personally, I’m fine with that as you still get to see everything, so it’s technically not ‘censored’, just had a minor adjustment.

I’ll talk about this later, but the TL DR is that the PlayStation version contains all of the same gruesome and disturbing scenes as the other platforms, you just don’t ‘play’ these scenes via a QTE – they play as a video instead. They say that no press is bad press, but in the case of Martha Is Dead, there have been a number of YouTubers and websites speculating on the content within this game based on a tweet sent out by the publisher. So, over the last week I’ve played through Martha Is Dead multiple times on multiple systems and via multiple visual modes – and no, the PlayStation version hasn’t been ‘censored’… So, when I heard that the developers, LKA, were creating another game with a similar dark and disturbing narrative, I knew I had to check it out. It was a thriller that relied on its brilliant writing and atmospheric environments in order to pull you into the dark and depressing story it was trying to tell. I loved The Town of Light, a psychological narrative adventure game based on real events and situations which took place within the horrific mental health institutes back in the 1930s.
