House of Ashes is the third game in the The Dark Pictures Anthology and a series of standalone, cinematic branching horror games where the decisions you make in the game determine the story and the outcome you receive. At the close of the Iraq War, Special Forces hunting for weapons of mass destruction unearth something far deadlier – a buried Sumerian temple containing a nest of unearthly creatures. To survive the night below, they must forge a brotherhood with their enemies from the world above.

A big fan of the Dark Pictures games. The strongest in the series by far and my favourite. It has that choices matter survival horror camp aspect that Until Dawn has and was based on a ghost story/legend.

Platinum for these games are gruelling as it requires normally around 3 playthroughs and each time is maybe a good 4ish hours.

unnötiger Storybackground, teilweise sehr toxische Charaktere, hätte man anders beginnen können

I love this kind of game where you get to shape the outcome so much! Not my fav scenario but I loved the turn with the monsters. In my opinion it has the best character (Salim) in all the DPA games; and it actually depicted quite some depth so some of the characters which was very nice!

This game keeps you on edge through out the entire time with its qtes! Mistakes are not forgiven, since you cant reload. Though some decisions are like: why the frick was this a wrong one now?

Titulo sensacional de PS5 justo para estas epocas de TERROR!!

 

Titulo que nos ha traido BANDAI con Colaboracion de Supermassive Games, en esta 2da entrega que hemos vivido en el canal de esta antologia de 4 juegos en esta 2 aventura/Pelicula de Miedo.. Nos aventuramos al Desierto en Irak con una Historia sumamente intrigante pero a su vez acompañada de mucha accion y suspenso.

 

Personalmente una Magnifica Historia para vivirla en un FDS de Terror si asi lo desean en una muy breve comparativa con (MAN OF MEDAN).. Historia mucho mas detallada la de este titulo... Personajes mucho más adentrados en la historia mucho mas detallados en su comportamiento que influye directamente en esta Sensacional Historia. Toma de decisiones, Quick Time Events Maravillosos.. Una Simple pero Maravillosa Historia.

On the rather short side of these narrative games, but very interesting nonetheless! With a friend, everything is more fun :D

Sharing my Full Walkthrough:

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL957yPFpIoy_tkvKlw65Ot3BShI1aWtlE&si=LKCe0ANlhdRWUR2H

 

Summary:

House of Ashes is the third entry in The Dark Pictures Anthology by Supermassive Games. It is a cinematic survival-horror adventure set in Iraq in 2003, during the closing days of the Iraq War.

 

The story follows two groups—U.S. Special Forces and Iraqi soldiers—who are forced together when a military operation uncovers a buried Sumerian temple after an earthquake. Trapped underground, the soldiers discover that the ruins are not abandoned but inhabited by terrifying, bat-like vampiric creatures that hunt in the dark.

 

The main playable characters include:

 

Rachel King, a CIA officer caught between duty and personal relationships.

 

Eric King, her estranged husband and a colonel leading the operation.

 

Jason Kolchek and Nick Kay, U.S. Marines with their own moral struggles.

 

Salim Othman, an Iraqi soldier and father who becomes an unlikely ally.

 

As tensions rise, the characters must navigate distrust, cultural divides, and old grudges while working together to survive. The temple itself holds ancient secrets, tied to Mesopotamian history and an alien parasite that created the monsters.

 

Gameplay focuses on player choices, quick-time events, and exploration. Decisions determine who lives, who dies, and how relationships develop. The themes revolve around cooperation in the face of shared danger, the futility of war, and the horror of ancient evils buried beneath human conflicts.

 

Depending on the player’s actions, the group can either escape together, die one by one, or uncover hidden truths about the creatures’ origins.
