✓ Both are first-person shooters — sharing shooter, first-person shooting and adventure storytelling

≠ Where it differs: brings horror tension, puzzle design and dark, oppressive atmosphere, while skipping precision platforming

The reset that pulled the series back to survival horror: first-person, confined to a single decaying Louisiana estate, with scarce ammo and a family that hunts you through it. The Baker house section is among the best horror the series has produced. After you leave it the game becomes far more scripted and linear, and the boss design is the weakest part of the package.

The darkest and hardest of the Prime games: a light and dark world where the dark one drains health continuously, so exploration runs on a clock. Boss design is excellent. The ammo system for beams is the divisive part — it turns experimenting with weapons into a resource decision, and backtracking for keys late on is genuinely tedious.
