The misadventures of a bunch of nearly completely reprehensible college students trapped on a mountain during a blizzard. All can potentially die in various gruesome ways. Takes itself far too seriously at times which is good for a laugh, and occasionally legitimately suspenseful as well. Also very nice to look at for the most part.

It was fun to play the puppet master pulling strings, But it isn't for everyone, if you're looking for a action game with lots of shooting then this isn't the game for you, but if you wanna cool story, and you like some of the actors in the game you should pick this game up, it's a lot like heavy rain meets taletell games the walking dead,

And I really like horror movies! It was suspensful and deceptive, both traits I love in movies. Great cast and engaging storyline. I played it for several hours a day for a week. I really enjoyed the balance of cut scenes mixed with first-player decision-making.

This is pretty much like a horror movie made into a TellTale type game with the choices. It is fun whether you watch a friend play it and see the story and choices progress, as if watching a movie. Obviously still fun if you play alone as well, in the dark with some headphones will prove to give a some scares and chills.

Not many games have really good stories but this one really has a good story. It plays out like a horror film but you can do many decisions that will change the outcome of the story. I replayed this a second time and chose differently and everything played out different.

As long as you're not faint of heart and enjoy a good horror film, I would recommend to purchase this game. It seamlessly combines regular gameplay with movie-quality cinematic and is a blast to play.
Especially at the $20 price point, this is a no-brainer.

This is one of those hidden gems that you have to play yourself to get a understanding of. It’s basically an interactive story that the choices you make influence the characters. The story is really great!

Typically, I shun away from the less game more movie aspect of modern gaming. Until Dawn added something that isn't usually part of this David Cage laden Deus Machina dependent genre and that's 80's horror movie camp. Play this alone or better yet with your gaming averse significant other and have a blast making deadly decisions.

Until Dawn is full of them! You'd think that I would get used to them, because there are so many, and maybe I did... But then I couldn't sleep. No, it's not that scary. The story is fun, and there are multiple endings, so you can replay it different ways each time!

To envoke memories of cult hits of 90s and early 2000s teen horror movies is no easy feat! But to do it and create an absolute well put together product... Well that's great work on the part of the developers and Sony. Excellent work! Can't wait for the next project!

If you have a PS4 and for some reason haven't played this, you're missing out! ESPECIALLY if you have a partner to play with, nothing's more fun than making the decisions together

Zombies and death kills. What else do I need to say about Until Dawn! Storyline is decent. Just kill the Zombies! Lol! What are you waiting on? Get this game!

Until Dawn is one of the most unique horror games I've played in quite some time. It plays a lot like Heavy Rain where every choice you make affects the storyline, the fate of the characters, and so much more. Was a blind buy for me and should be for you as well!

Just try to get everyone out alive. Good ensemble of voice actors lend this game a great feel and uniquely scary situations. Really challenging to save some of the party (especially if you dont want to, haha) but good challenge none the less. A steal at this price.

There isn't much gameplay but has a okay story line. This game reminds of a playable horror movie. The people look realistic and in the middle of the game the plot unfolds. If your into horror movies and survival horror games, you might actually like this game.

This is my first time playing a real horror or suspenseful game. The story is good as well as graphics. I really like that you as play control the fate of all eight characters a simple choice in the game can be the difference between life and death.

This is a decent game for a couple nights of cheap horror trills and cheesy jump scares. The graphics, sound design, and voice-acting are all fantastic, really showing off the PS4's power. The overall story is OK, but the plot twist about half-way through will be painfully obvious to anyone who has seen their share of teen horror movies. The quick time events are implemented fairly well, but they use the PS4 motion controls too often, which at least for me did not seem to work properly. My first playthrough took about 8 hours, and I tried to save all the characters. My next playthrough took another 4 hours, this time I tried to kill all the characters. One major problem with this game is that you cannot skip the numerous and lengthy cut-scenes, even on your subsequent playthroughs. This really detracts from the replay value in my opinion. 3 stars, worth playing if you like survival horror games.
