Review: At the end of the day, horror games work well in VR even if the games graphics and gameplay are not that great. But the Allison’s Diary series of games (3 so far) are all beautiful games with great gameplay and storyline. With ‘The Cathedral’ the story of this superb series of horror adventures continues. With tonnes of jump scares, good controls if you use a Gamepad as well as a great story to follow along and get engaged with. While I do suggest you play “The Hospital: Allison’s Diary” before this one it’s not necessary if you don’t want to. Long may these series continue and the storyline grows deeper and deeper into the darkness.
