We’ve been writing about Scorn for six years now, and its world of meat, bone and gristle has been compelling that entire time. It’s partly Giger-inspired, but that means it’s filled with body horror and suspiciously shaped tubes, not that it’s necessarily action packed. Developers Ebb Software have been careful to say that Scorn has shooting, but that it’s not a shooter. Ed played Scorn at Gamescom and found it more of a hardcore puzzler than a survival horror. I am onboard with that in theory, although Ed also found its puzzles obtuse and needed developer intervention to progress: Hmm! He did also find Scorn stunning to look at, so perhaps that will be enough to draw me through. I hope so. Scorn will launch on October 14th via Steam, Epic and Game Pass.
