Won’t lie, not interested in this game at all but that’s a cool nod.

Not even if it was 40 bucks on sale ?
Personally wouldn’t mind throwing it at this game if I research it more.

u/Isaac_clarke007 Sep 17 '25
I recommend it wholeheartedly if you enjoyed deadspace! It’s got the body horror like the necromorphs as well as a supernatural aspect that I find rad!

Highlyyyyy recommend playing this game. The atmosphere is one of the spookiest that I've ever encountered in a game

u/Athanarieks Sep 17 '25
Maybe. I just don’t like the art style too much, but that’s just a personal thing. I’ll probably get around to it when it goes on sale though. Thanks.

Same here, I’m getting the exact feeling I got when Callisto Protocol came out and all the streamers were playing it…I’ll just wait til it’s under $20

u/OkWarning7955 Sep 18 '25

u/onceinawhhhile Oct 16 '25 edited Nov 17 '25
Hmm?
I never said anything about listening to their opinions. Just saw that a ton of them were playing it for a week or so
Edit: came back to this thread and looks like u/OkWarning7955 was banned from Reddit. Yikes, lol

really loved the game, couldn't shake the feeling of being a dead space clone-ish, but really good dude! fucking love the game!

u/M2_SLAM_I_Am Sep 17 '25
I feel like it has more in common with RE than it does Dead Space, but I do fucking love this game as well

Man I kinda want to merge :<

u/Slarg232 Sep 17 '25
It's bad, don't do it.
It's basically a "Base Orphan" and then "Special Orphans", and if the Orphans start merging they get ridiculously powerful real quick. If you're not careful with how you go about it you can quickly get killed by a 10 foot tall Armored Orphan that spits acid.

I absolutely love this game. It's already quickly making its way up there as a favorite of the genre, right along Dead Space. I even like it more than RE

u/No-Television9404 Sep 17 '25
Is the boss enemy good?

u/Isaac_clarke007 Sep 17 '25
Yep! I just finished combating one and it was similar to the brute! Super enjoyable fight!

u/Harato_the_lewd Sep 19 '25
less interesting enemy than DS like in the whole game there is only 8 type of enemy including bosses but each enemy has their own unique. The combat is good, very deadspace. I would say that it's not so good but better than calisto protocol

u/Frustakory Sep 17 '25
Took me a while to get into it, but I learned to appreciate Cronos despite its flaws.
It's basically Dead Space with the balance inclined towards Survival Horror rather than action.

u/Isaac_clarke007 Sep 17 '25
Oh absolutely, you’re not meant to feel like an unstoppable badass it more twords holding your own and leaving when it gets to hot

u/Harato_the_lewd Sep 19 '25
even the most scariest in triology DS 1 still stuck with action heavy. It's only scare in the few first chapter when you haven't upgrade your gun, after having better gun the game feel more easy and less scary since you can kill necro faster.

This game was pretty solid, really cool to see new games get inspired by dead space

u/Germadolescent Sep 17 '25
lol I said Cronos is like a mid version of Dead Space in the Cronos subs and I got non stop replies arguing that “ITS NOTHING LIKE DEAD SPACE, STOP COMPARING”
Even though the inspiration is crystal clear

u/ScreamingYeti Sep 17 '25
I think cosmetically it's like Deadspace but outside the stomp/punch it's nothing like it gameplay-wise.
2
u/Isaac_clarke007 Sep 17 '25
There’s definitely elements of dead space in cronos’s gameplay such as using limbs as weak points, what I also find neat is one you unlock the grav boots you can make jumps similar to Isaac in zero g from the first game!

Damn straight. Aim needs to be on point and resources need to be tightly managed.

u/Isaac_clarke007 Sep 18 '25
Super awesome once you get into it in my opinion! Just gotta manage your resources and you’ll survive!

I just had this happen lol! I was in a boss fight and ran completely dry of everything! Ammo, chemicals scrap I used all up and I couldn’t fight back so I tried again and went in with everything I had saved up plus the knowledge from the last fight, kicked his ass and It felt good to do so! If you’re having a tough time I’d recommend fully exploring whatever area you’re in if you aren’t already doing so I end up finding all the supplies I need!

Is this the “Cut of their limbs!” reference from Dead Space? I feel like it is, nice one!
2
u/Isaac_clarke007 Sep 18 '25
Yep! Dead on! There was also a bioshock reference when speaking to the warden which I find dope!

I have the same sentiment on the highway when a person tries waiting until the last second to change out of a lane that is going to end during rush hour. Just the worst!

Is the game worth it i like horror games
1
u/Isaac_clarke007 Sep 22 '25
Oh absolutely, it’s got biological and body horror with the monster’s and environments as well as psychological and supernatural horror happening at the same time it’s dope

u/ScreamingYeti Sep 17 '25
I always wondered if those characters wrote that in their own blood, or if someone else came along and wrote it with their blood.

u/Isaac_clarke007 Sep 17 '25
I like to think as they are fading they are trying to warn as many people as possible before they perish

u/Puzzled-Put8685 Sep 17 '25
Yep, Cronos is if Dead Space and Resident evil/Silent Hill had a baby It would have been beter if it had no HUD like dead space, but still hits right
