Is it still worth playing?

Tango Gameworks' 2017 survival horror game, set three years after The Evil Within, in which the detective Sebastian Castellanos enters the nightmare town of Union to rescue his daughter Lily. Union is a simulated American town with open areas that you explore, and they alternate with linear story chapters. Traveling between buildings lets you gather crafting components and ammunition, which are scarce, and you can fight with weapons, use stealth or set traps with a crossbow. An item called the Communicator highlights objectives, resources and enemies, five skill trees cover health, stealth, combat, recovery and athleticism, and weapons can be customized with parts. There are five difficulty modes, and a free update in 2018 added a first person view. Even now, a town you can explore freely, with scarce ammunition, makes every trip between buildings a decision about risk.
