Reanimal vs Silent Hill f
Choose between a chilling co-op horror romp through a hellish island and a story-driven psychological nightmare set in 1960s Japan.
Worth $40 for its atmospheric co-op horror and striking art direction, but the short runtime stumbles for solo players.
Silent Hill comes back swinging in 1960s Japan — Ryukishi07's writing and Yamaoka's score carry it past combat that's still the franchise's weak spot.
