A phenomenal and visually arresting experience.
Hard recommend if you want to be unsettled as you walk through a long-decayed civilization and puzzle out what's happened to the environment in an open-to-interpretation narrative.
If you're looking for a fast paced fun time with a combat emphasis, consider a sale or skipping. Scorn has a pretty particular target audience, and I fall into it. Recommend giving it a try and seeing for yourself.

Great puzzles, if a little obtuse, with a clunky combat system that is delibratley slow. It has more in common with a first-person view of PS1 survival horror titles, but thankfully sequences are relatively minor and focus more on resource management. Overall, Scorn has more in common with classic adventure games like Dark Sector and Myst than with something like Prey or Dead Space.
At its best when it's the protagonist, a novel vista, and an unexplained creature which is a combination hit really frequently throughout the 5-6 hour run time. Visuals don't overstay their welcome, as each level has a distinct look, feel, and purpose that keeps advancing the presentation
