The DeanBeat: The wonderful tropes of horror in The Quarry

Supermassive Games‘ The Quarry is another one of those wonderful interactive movie horror games that drive you mad with choices as you try to make the right decisions to save a group of teenagers at a summer camp.

The creators have come a long way in the past seven years with five horror titles since 2015’s Until Dawn. I was predisposed to like The Quarry, which was published by 2K and feels almost like a remake of 2015’s Until Dawn because that title was my favorite game of that year.
