£2/$3? Bargain!

Cut to the Core's impressive aesthetic grabbed me the moment I saw it, & when I saw the price/format, I just knew I had to give it a go. There's a lot more to it than the brilliant retro comic book gore, too!

The story is pretty damn compelling, though as the art/store page suggests, it certainly isn't a tale for the squeamish. The game covers several touchy subjects, but never in a way that's downplaying the horrors of such situations - make sure to read the "MATURE CONTENT DESCRIPTION" on the store page if you feel you're likely to be upset by something, or go in absolutely blind if you're wanting the most out of the read.

The sound design is almost every bit as brilliant as the comic book art, & helps elevate CttC even further. A strong OST, & horrible, gory sound effects help turn CttC into something more substantial than a traditional comic could offer.

It's hard to go into too many details without giving too much away, but at £2/$3, Cut to the Core is an absolute no brainer for horror fans, VN fans, & fans of anyone who honestly just wants something totally different to what they're used to. The art & sound design are fantastic, & while it feels like they might be propping up the story a tiny bit, the story itself is still very memorable thanks to its gruesome nature & the brilliance of the format.
