Instead of fighting enemies head-on, gameplay seems to largely consist of puzzle-solving while also avoiding dangerous enemies, whose presence feeds into the game\u2019s fear system. Similar to games such as Amnesia, the fear system causes players to become disoriented when placed in terrifying situations \u2013 something Ziegler describes as a \u201ccause and effect\u201d feature. Since the game is survival horror, expect to collect and juggle an inventory of items as you explore deeper into the village.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Mundaun\u2019s hand-drawn art stands as its most unique feature. Ziegler creates charcoal sketches of characters and maps them onto 3D models. The result is like watching a twisted sketchbook come to life, and gives Mundaun an unsettling atmosphere. You can watch how Ziegler creates the art in the short behind-the-scenes video below.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2021\/01\/12\/mundaun-brings-pencil-drawn-horror-to-consoles-and-pc-in-march\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to watch embedded media<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Mundaun looks fascinating, and thankfully we won\u2019t have to wait too long to see how it shapes up.
