All about game Silent Hill: Origins
Silent Hill: Origins is the fifth installment in the Silent Hill survival horror series, and a prequel to the original game. Players must explore both nightmare and real versions of the town while gathering items used to solve puzzles and gain access to new areas. As with previous entries in the series, monsters provide obstacles for progress; these monsters come in various forms and are often disturbingly twisted versions of humanity.
The main character can fight using his bare fists or by using weapons found throughout Silent Hill. However, unlike its predecessors, melee weapons will break eventually after being used multiple times which adds an extra layer of difficulty for gamers. One-shot items that can be thrown as well as guns are also available for use against enemies encountered during gameplay. An interesting feature that has been added is that there is no HUD (heads up display) but instead when the protagonist nears death, a red hue outlines the edges of your screen giving players more time to prepare before they face their demise if they choose to continue playing rather than start over at a previously saved point.
Overall, this installment offers something fresh compared to earlier games within its genre while staying true enough to traditional Silent Hill mechanics so fans won’t feel completely alienated from what made them love this franchise in first place - making it one excellent addition for veteran fans or newcomers alike looking for some good old fashioned horror fun!
