Having played Clive Barker's Jericho, I went into Undying with cautious optimism. Jericho's story was interesting, but the gameplay proved to be far too frustrating and, frankly, unenjoyable. Undying, fortunately, is a different breed of monster.
Coming from a man such as Clive Barker, the story is obviously well fleshed-out and downright terrifying. Being on an island, with no outside help coming or expected, is enough to start the goosebumps to raise. But while Jericho's seven-man team play was poorly implemented, Undying's one-man sojourn into unknown and occult territories is provocatively addictive.
While it's true the graphics are outdated, they still hold up fairly well, and the voice-over work is excellent (featuring Mr. Barker himself as one of the characters). Jericho may have turned you off to Clive's video game attemps, but don't look past his previous if somewhat unknown successes. Undying will grap you with a cold, damp fist, and won't let go until everything turns black.
Then, your true journey can begin...
