About Outlast

In the remote mountains of Colorado, horrors wait inside Mount Massive Asylum. A long-abandoned home for the mentally ill, recently re-opened by the “research and charity” branch of the transnational Murkoff Corporation, has been operating in strict secrecy… until now.

Acting on a tip from an inside source, independent journalist Miles Upshur breaks into the facility – and what he discovers walks a terrifying line between science and religion, nature and something else entirely. Once inside, his only hope of escape lies with the terrible truth at the heart of Mount Massive.

About Outlast: Whistleblower:

Outlast: Whistleblower follows the story of Waylon Park, a contracted software engineer who emails journalists around the world – including Miles Upshur – with news of the Murkoff Corporation’s questionable research and practices…  setting the events in motion that lead to the unmasking of Mount Massive’s rotten core. Starting the story that led into Outlast, Whistleblower weaves a tale that winds through the first game to show the true final chapter in the story of Mount Massive Asylum.

I've been an avid gamer since I stumbled upon ZORK running in my local Radio Shack in 1980. Ten years later I was working for Sierra Online. Since then I've owned nearly every game system and most of the games to go with them. Not sure if 40+ years of gaming qualifies me to write reviews, but I do it anyway.
