Dark Drive Home

I played this game because it looked interesting, But after about 5-10 minutes of playtime I got bored and closed the window it was running in. The first thing you notice upon booting up this game is that its powered by Unity, which isn't a problem. What is a problem however, is that the main menu is clunky and confusing. After fumbling around for a short while, I got into a game. Unless you read the controls in the main menu, you have no idea how to control the car, so it's a good thing I did that. In the passenger seat,there is a note with a set of directions on it, and I assumed that you are meant to follow them. I started to drive forward and look for a turn on the left. That's when I noticed that when driving forwards, your car always veers to the right a la Desert Bus, making turning left more difficult. Other than that, the car actually controls like a car, so well done on that front. After driving straight ahead for a while, I also noticed that there is no turn on the left, and only one on the right, and no matter how far I drove, a really similar looking right hand turn showed up after a while. I had no choice but to go that way. After another short while I found a left hand turn. Finally! And then I got hopelessly lost and shut the game off.
Personally I don't really know what I just played. The page for your game just calls it a Simulation game, but to me it felt more like a horror. It had plenty of atmosphere, but no scares, per se. There was virtually no sound, and the car itself was completely silent. When I turned, the steering wheel stayed completely rigid. The story itself could use some work (Very few people actually work the night shift on a regular basis, to my understanding.) and with a few tweaks this could be a very interesting... Thing.
3/5 Unless you make changes.
