Hollowbody is an early 2000s-style third -person survival horror game by Nathan Hamley .

It's set in the not-too-distant future in a ruined city somewhere in the British Isles .

The true terror comes from inhabiting a world where regular people are failed by the system and left to die.

While the game resurrects PS2 graphics, it does not subject you to tank controls.

There are bodies in various states of decay at every turn, and Mica ’s scanner will give you an instant read on the deceased to get a sense of who they were and how they died.

A backstory forms through documents and audio flashbacks that are activated at certain sites, telling of financial struggles and gentrification in the city long before the biological disaster.

Beating the game also unlocks a harder difficulty option and a first -person dungeon crawler mode.
