USA/UK
"Song of Horror is one of the best indie horror games out there. Taking the key aspects of genre classics like Silent Hill and Resident Evil, and combining these with an encyclopedic knowledge of the genre in other media, Song of Horror really gets under your skin and, just like The Presence, will haunt the dark corners of your mind."
The Sixth Axis - 9/10
"Song of Horror is an ode to classic survival horror that taps into what makes the genre resonate. [...] a heart-pounding experience."
Game Informer - 8/10
"From moment one of diving into the game, you can clearly see that Song of Horror is a work of passion (one might definitely hope so with those six years of development) that’s highly detailed in its environmental design. There’s so much to see that’s it almost a shame there’s no first-person mode available."
3rd Strike - 9/10
"...A perfectly engrossing horror game [...]As first releases go, however, they don’t come much smarter or classier than this. Protocol is a developer to keep an eye on – preferably from a distance."
Edge - 7/10
GERMANY
"The game builds a terrifying atmosphere in a really short time. The lighting effects, the music, and the constant fear of being attacked by a monster at any moment are captivating. Sometimes, the game experience was so stressful I forgot I was playing in the middle of an open office."
PCGames - 8/10
"The horror is dark and knows how to keep tension. And the ending is simply malicious, the second part can already go into production, I'm eagerly waiting."
MDEGaming - 80.8/100
"Song of Horror can compete with a James Wan film in terms of atmosphere."
GameStar
SPAIN
"The new horror game that won't let you sleep. [...] A notable homage to classic survival horror that knows how to contribute very clever ideas."
HobbyConsolas - 81/100

ITALY
"...A solid horror adventure that will please fans of the genre and beyond, and that deserves to be experienced to the end."
Multiplayer It - 8/10
"Song of Horror is a title with a strong soul, albeit visibly influenced by a certain type of horror literature. The plot is well written and will catch your attention until the spectacular finale while the gameplay draws fully from the cornerstones of the genre proposing a very personal and enjoyable interpretation."
Eurogamer - 8/10
"The fifth and final episode of Song of Horror did not disappoint our expectations and, thanks to an excellent narrative interweaving between present and past, manages to give the worthy conclusion to the whole experience."
Game Legends - 8.8/10
OTHERS
