Just like with your "Evil Dead:Hail to the King" review,you're completely correct about this game,as well...
I played this just a few years after it came out,in Oct. 2001. And,it was refreshing to have a Survival-Horror game set in some place NEW,for a change(a "Mars Colony",no less)!
However,the things you've mentioned in the review are true...
It's too easy to run out of ammo /and/ health(from my experience),because of the enemies that won't stay dead & all the back-tracking that is unavoidable...
Also,I recall being easily confused on where to go. With,seemingly few rooms that were accessible. And,as you mentioned with the "happening in Real-Time" effect,there is seldom a place of safety to leave those you are not currently playing…
