"Penumbra: Black Plague combines puzzles and horror to create a game that is probably unlike anything you've played. It's a little bit like a brain-training game, only between lessons you fray your nerves (in a good way) as you jump and pause at every little noise."

GameZone.com - English

"What also sells the game are the sound effects that lurk in the background. Turn the volume up to experience the creepiness of the situation."

"At the end of the day however, this is a different experience to almost any other first-person title out there, and for that reason alone we can definitely recommend any PC owner to give it a try."

"It’s sad to hear that this will be the last Penumbra title but it is definitely on my list of the creepiest games that I have ever played."

GamingExcellence.com - English

"This brings me to the real star of Penumbra: its great atmosphere and sense of immersion. There’s no heads-up display showing your health or anything other information; all you see your flashlight/glowstick/flare, the only shield you have against the pitch black."

For all Finns there is a review over at edome and for Italians you can find a review over at nextgame.
