"Eternal Evil" Review – Resident Evil’s Broke Cousin, But We Love Him Anyway

Look, Eternal Evil isn’t trying to be the next Resident Evil but somehow it stumbled into the family reunion anyway, clutching a bloodstained flashlight and mumbling something about cursed towns. And you know what? I’m here for it.

This game is like if Resident Evil and Silent Hill had a low-budget baby during a power outage. You’ve got zombies (or zombie-adjacent freaks), spooky mansions, cryptic notes written in handwriting that screams “red flag,” and puzzles that make you question both your IQ and your life choices.

Pros:
Moody atmosphere that screams “don’t go down that hallway” but you do anyway because you need ammo.

Satisfying guns that sweet pump-action shotgun could probably cure depression.

Classic survival horror vibes: Inventory Tetris, backtracking, and ominous music that starts playing for no reason (are you being stalked or did the soundtrack just vibe too hard? Who knows.)

Cons:

Enemy AI sometimes forgets it’s in a horror game and just kind of… vibes near you.

The final boss hitbox is on vacation. You’ll be shooting air like it owes you money.

Some doors are like exes once they close, they’re not coming back. Better hope you didn’t forget a healing item in there.

In summary: If Resident Evil is a sleek Hollywood action-horror blockbuster, Eternal Evil is a gritty, homegrown B-movie that knows it’s rough around the edges and leans into it. It’s janky, creepy, weirdly charming, and honestly? It slaps.

8/10 would absolutely die in the same hallway again.
