You’re Giulia, the daughter of a fascist general, though that’s just backdrop. We’re in rural Italy, 1944, towards the end of WW2.

For the most part Martha just made me frown and go “ew”. Horror games are allowed to be horrific, but the way to cultivate real fear is through restraint rather than desensitising bombardment. It’s just a dream, but still, this is far from the only time Martha Is Dead insists you do something unspeakable, nor is it even the only time you’re forced to desecrate your sister’s corpse.Īpart from poor writing, these excessive, brute force attempts to disturb define Martha Is Dead. After lingering over the resulting mess of blood, muscle and bulging eyes, you then place your recently drowned identical twin sister’s face over your own. You do it slowly, with a blunt dog tag, making several raggedy incisions before tearing off the face proper. This is the game where you peel a dead woman’s face off.

From: Steam, GOG, Humble, Epic Games Store.

Clunky writing, ponderous pacing and a commitment to lingering gore shots make Martha Is Dead an actively unpleasant experience.
