CheatCC says, "Cryostasis: Sleep of Reason is all about atmosphere. I am tempted to use the cliché, "The devil is in the details," simply because this game could be easily dismissed because of what may be perceived as a boring environment. This is not a travelogue. You're stuck on a frozen boat somewhere near the North Pole. As a Canadian, I can appreciate the feeling of loneliness, emptiness, and the helplessness that comes from suffering the unbearably brutal temperatures and winds unleashed by nature. It's ugly, but it has to be respected. Cryostasis does an admirable job of capturing those feelings of isolation and despair, and I would largely attribute that to the fact that the development team is Russian."
RPS:
"Cryostasis belongs to the same class as the S.T.A.L.K.E.R and Metro series, namely weird-as-heck Eastern bloc shooters. As an FPS it isn’t as good as anything either of those series’ offer, but the story it tells between the gun bits is satisfyingly mysterious and surprisingly touching."
Den of Geek continues their 31 days of horror games series with a really chilling game, Cryostasis: Sleep of Reason!
Videogamegeezer highlights three PC-only first-person games that need to be re-released onto the Xbox One and PS4, also suggesting improvements.
Among the Sleep was pretty good. Not all I was hoping it would be, but still a very strong title. Never played, naissanceE and Cryostasis, while interesting, was very, very poorly executed.
There are a number of titles that I feel are more deserving of a new audience.
Soldier of Fortune, made by Raven again like SOF2.. That multiplayer was so good back in 2002.
