Introduction: Delve into a disturbed psyche, in a gruesome struggle for redemption. Set in the slums and prisons of Baltimore, take control of Torque as he seeks revenge against the mysterious Caleb Blackmore, a man somehow tied to the death of Torque's family. Explore the tough and unforgiving inner-city streets, where poverty and urban injustices trap people just as effectively as a physical prison. The Suffering: Ties That Bind is an action-horror game that emphasises the disturbing terror of its predecessor, with all-new twisted creatures and a few familiar faces. The unique morality system returns, as players delve into the perverse world of Torque's sanity to discover his past and struggle to control his future. Lead Torque on a journey through streets gone mad with the embodiments of crime and corruption, all while battling his own insanity and his murderous past. Spurred on by a mysterious figure known only as Blackmore, and visited by mysterious figures more ghostly than real, Torque must fight, shoot, and burn his way to justice and the answers to his transforming insanity. Along the way, Torque makes or breaks alliances with the people he meets on the streets, each good or evil deed compounding on the last to give Torque unique powers when he lets his insanity take over and transform him into a being of pure madness... |
