Sometimes I just want to know what’s happening and how I’m going to proceed.
It’s a gross-looking game that delights in its grossness.
Instead, the entire narrative is told through the game’s environment.

The not-quite-living but definitely-not-dead nature to everything curates this uncanny sense that the protagonist is never truly alone.
You have to discover that for yourself, searching for the way forward by finding solutions to puzzles.
The game gives you nothing, relying on your blind curiosity to encourage you forward.
This isn’t altogether a novel concept.
Scorn, however, may be a bit too opaque in its storytelling and level design.
It’s definitely too soon to say for sure.
And my big issue with that is that it doesn’t exactly convince me to want to see more.
So instead, Scorn seems like a showcase for the truly disturbing world that Ebb Software has created.
I want a little bit more narrative meat on these gross-looking bones.
Scorn is scheduled to launch for Xbox Series X|S and PC on October 21.
The game will also launch on day one on Xbox Game Pass.
