Downpour’s horror is built on persecution and helplessness: you’re not a heroic survivor, you’re a fugitive in a town that turns your past into monsters. The rain-swept streets feel isolating, and the Otherworld sections push you into frantic escapes where fighting is rarely the best option. It’s classic Silent Hill dread: the town doesn’t just want to kill you — it wants to expose you.
