The Starship Damrey (宇宙船ダムレイ号, Uchūsen Damurei-gō) is a first-person perspective survival horror game designed by Kazuya Asano and Takemaru Abiko. It is part of the Guild02 series, released for the 3DS eShop in 2013.

Development

Izuho Numata was hired as a freelance composer for the game, but she felt the survival horror elements and tension would increase by not having any music, only relying on the sound effects. The developers agreed and outside of some of the event sequences, the entire game relies on environmental sound effects rather than BGM.[1]

Reception

The game received "mixed" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[2]
