“The item management situation is completely ♥♥♥♥♥♥. That's really my only complaint. It's got the same great look and feel as RE1 remake. Fun levels to explore, fun puzzles to solve. Good characters. Surprisingly they…”

“story is good and even more if you're already fan of RE, but the PATIENCE that this game requires is INSANE, saving is just like Re1 but feels less.... safe? puzzles are just annoying, if you do 1 single mistake 'yes…”

“I have to write this review just because I've seen so many complaints about the inventory system in this game. I have one piece of advice; learn to leave an item where it is until you know where it's used. If you…”
“Rebecca Chambers, This game is just great in almost every way. The story, the pacing, The enemies. Not having a item box makes it more realistic. Its fantastic 10/10”

“Eng/Ita Ita: Sinceramente non capisco perchè Resident Evil 0 sia così tanto odiato. Personalmente, da fan della saga l'ho trovato molto interessante come capitolo. L'atmosfera è uno dei punti migliori del gioco: cupa e inquietante. L'ambientazione del treno e del centro di…”
— a player, Steam review · 9 hrs played“My least favorite RE game but was fun re-experiencing it after being in a big RE mood since 9. I do enjoy this having the same classic RE feel like the 1st RE Remake has. Love the train area still so much in this game, biggest thing I always think of when talking about this…”
— a player, Steam review · 16 hrs played“TLDR: Great atmosphere and characters, terrible gameplay. Wait for a remake unless you're a longtime fan. I really want to like this game, I really truly do, but it just has so many glaring issues that it's hard to like it. First of all, starting with the positives: The game's…”
