8/10
Dead Space indeed but with his own identity

I need to say that i was worried at first because the game is clearly inspired of Dead Space .

And i was scared that they made something similar that have not the same taste but im really surprised about the game .

The story is a little bit too much and kind of classic : a virus and an antidote to help everyone . Too much drama and sometimes it was not even necessary but i didnt really get into it by the story but more with that atmosphere, the visuals ( lets be honest : Callisto Protocol is a very beautiful game ), the stealth ( yes the game contain a way to kill ennemies silently and i like that different approach of gameplay ), the sound design ( it really enhance the experience of horror and tensions ). How the characters meet are a little bit clumsy and classic ( Mostly Dani and Jacob.)

The variety of ennemies was interesting and there was really violent and we could feel their violence by their way of how they moves . I enjoyed the mechanics of melee with that long stick and i found very intuitive the way to dodge the attacks and was really great to play and give a different experience than the dead space and have in my opinion his own identity .

The story was ok but nothing that interesting and the ambience , mood was really there and i really love my gameplay during the time that i played .

Some design elements remind me too much of Dead Space : the upgrading elements , the doors , some weapons , some powers. But it really surprised me how the game was pretty good and have an aventure interesting enough to keep you there with some original mechanics. So yeah its a great quality and love how violent and tense the game was : it really made me forget that im playing a game similar of dead space sometimes. So yeah a big surprise that i didnt expect the video game will be that good.
