Official Description (Ad Blurb)

Others lead the escape but the Kid drops down into the Depths of the Maw. Little does he know that this murky place is home to The Granny - abandoned to decay and rage she will let no-one go. He must struggle on if he wants to survive, leap from floating debris to avoid being pulled into the treacherous waters, and find a way to create a path through the depths.

Too deep for me

The Good
Still scary sometimes

The Bad
Fiddly controls Tedious puzzles Weak protagonist and atmosphere

The Bottom Line
This first DLC is disappointing. The controls feel even more fiddly than in the base game; many times, I died to the boss because my angle was just a bit off. The original game avoided obnoxious puzzles, but in The Depths, they return with a vengeance in the form of a long and frustrating crank puzzle.

The base game's wonderful atmosphere has also vanished somewhere. The protagonist is nowhere near as charismatic as Six, and the cryptic, eerie feeling of exploring an unknown world is missing. There's much less music and no memorable songs, unlike the excellent sound design of the main game. Disappointingly, even though you ostensibly collect messages in bottles, you don't actually get any lore from them. At least being chased by monsters is as heart-poundingly scary as in the original.
