My heart sank when I read through the newspapers in the game, who tried to pin Martha’s murder as something political when it likely wasn’t. The game really does showcase the tragedy of war and it’s very respectfully done. The game is set in 1940’s Italy during World War 2 and Giulia lives with her parents. The premise is simple, but with all of the characters thrown in and without spoiling any plotlines, the plot becomes a lot more complex very quickly. Giulia uses the tools available to her such as her camera to figure out who killed Martha. The protagonist you control is named Giulia and her twin sister is Martha, who is found dead at the beginning of the game. The screenshots I’ll provide herein won’t spoil the plot and won’t be gory in case you’re squeamish.

The only kind of spoiler I’ll say is that “Martha Is Dead” (as the game’s name implies). I won’t give any spoilers in our impressions of the preview build. Martha Is Dead is a first-person horror game set in 1940’s Italy that manages to be both lovely and horrifying at the same time. There are some good ideas here that deserved to be in a better game, but as it stands right now, Martha is Dead is a frustrating experience that fails to do justice to those ideas.Home » Game Reviews » Martha Is Dead – Preview Impressions

The setting is beautiful and lovingly crafted, but actually playing the game often feels like a chore for one reason or the other. The narrative premise is unique and makes its distinct elements work together surprisingly well, but it’s pacing might very well turn you away if you don’t have the patience (or inclination) to stick with it. Thoughts- Martha Is Dead has a lot going for it, but it often gets in its own way. I am waiting for the game to pick up the pace but it never seems too. It feels so slow-paced even for an atmospheric horror game. There are weird moments in the game and sections that just are not fun or scary and feel pointless. One of the best looking indie horror games that I have seen in years. The setting feels really authentic and immerses me in it's world. The setting feels really Good- The narrative's premise and the story it sets up is one of the most inriguing I have played in years.
