This makes Bendy and the Ink Machine feel like a horror game, but it doesn't quite work. At the same time, there may or may not be a monster prowling around, seeking to eat nasty little intruders like you.

Sometimes you'll need to find a code that opens a door, or maybe you'll need to gather parts to repair something. Most of the time, you'll be wandering around dilapidated sections of the studio, gathering different pieces and parts for whatever your current goal happens to be. Now that the scene has been set, let's talk about the gameplay, which is where things start going wrong. But before he can do anything about the things his boss left unfinished, Henry managed to trap himself in the depths of the haunted studio with only the Ink Machine and the. Eventually Henry finds that his boss had devised a less than ethical way to literally bring his cartoons to life. There's weird writing on the walls, doors are opening themselves, and you get the feeling that promotional Bendy cutout is watching you. Shortly after arriving, strange things start to happen that suggest things aren't right. Your old boss has asked you to return to what remains of his studio and have a look around, as there's something he wants you to see. You play as Henry, who was an animator at Joey Drew Studios. They had good ideas, and if they had just committed to a method of executing those ideas, this could easily have been another Amnesia or Penumbra. The result is a game that doesn't seem to understand what it's trying to be, and the experience is worse off because of it. In the end, it feels like they made all three, smashed them together, and hoped for the best.

Were they aiming to make a horror game? an action adventure? a mystery themed puzzle game?

Not because I don't know where I stand on the game, but because I'm not confident that the developers had a clear goal in mind while they worked on their project. If I had to sum up my thoughts on Bendy and the Ink Machine in a single word, that word would probably be "undecided".
