What would you say to me if you could play an "Among Us" style in 3D but in a darker and action-packed setting? Embark on this horror game in this frame in Mimicry created by the Euphoria Horror Game team released in 2021 but its last update was exactly today 8th September 2022 so that means the developers have been active since then.

Game

You join a large group and someone from your team is infected with a type of virus that makes him become a hideous creature that can transform into the dead human, as a survivor you must do some tasks (does it sound familiar to you?) win in the game or simply go hunting the monster and then eliminate it since the game focuses beyond strategy the simple act of pure action where you can go out shooting with your Ak-47 and still kill a companion by accident, collect resources to help in their survival such as emergency kits, energy, weapons and ammunition.

Attention the game is for 14+, high-violence and impactful content in addition to in-app purchases.

General gameplay

I particularly loved how it was done, the mechanics are very fluid although my character has had some "choking" on objects in the scenario when trying to make a contour to escape the monster, the sensitivity of the aim can be configured as well as the size of the buttons if you cares that much about it, the game runs at 60 FPS without bad optimization issues, but if your device is more modest you can change that in options and only run at 30 FPS, it's not a significant loss if you're not a perfectionist and counting frame by frame I almost didn't feel anything so much that after testing it I really forgot I was at 30 FPS, an animation or another there that you can understand better.

The map is extensive but not to the point of being tiring to chase or escape depending on your current situation in the game, one thing I found interesting is that some doors have a second timer to be opened again, this makes it possible to create strategies to achieve an objective only barring the infected human since she also locks herself to him, I don't know if there is a ranked mode since after entering the match there is kind of a Lobby and you wait for new players to enter until the team is complete, noting here that I didn't have problems with the wait and I don't even care if they could be BOTS to ease this wait (I'm sure not since they were talking through the voice channel), I've stayed more in big games like PUBG and COD and even then they had those robots lost on the map.

Graphic/Sound Quality

The graphics resembles a famous PC game that looks like the same genre, although it pulls more towards the simple and traditional without much realism in texture or lighting, its animation is fluid and the interaction with objects and items is interesting to observe, even more when we can collect toolboxes that are sampled in our hand all the time, one point I didn't like was the flamethrower animation that looked a little rough and could be improved perhaps by leaving less pattern and creating a randomness.

The sound part is very good, the atmosphere combines with a suspense that is transmitted through the background music, although like me you will prefer to turn down that volume and hear your companions yelling at you about the lack of information you are passing on, wait just until someone gets scared by the monster out of nowhere with the microphone activated.
