Attack of the Fanboy
by Louisa Bhairam
An excellent horror experience for both seasoned and newbie gamers. Despite some minor shortcomings, Layers of Fear brings some classic elements while adding new depth, creating a unique and fear filled journey that you won't be able to tear yourself away from.

Layers of Fear is an intriguing experimental haunted house, but without a proper sense of pacing, it fails to scare.
Game Revolution
by James Kozanitis
In a game that has a lot of fresh ideas on how to build suspense and let your mind do most of the work, it's disappointing to see frequent usage of those tautologies (it's scary because it's scary).
