Part of the reason why Martha is Dead ended up being such a disappointing experience is because it starts off so strongly. But I also think that, in some ways, the controversy serves as a distraction from the fact that Martha is Dead is a bad game. In fact, one of them is literally the most disturbing thing I’ve ever seen in a video game-and no, it’s not the one that you could experience in the demo. Having played my review copy of Martha is Dead on PC, I can only make an educated guess as to which scenes developer LKA changed, and there are many to choose from. The story about this censorship could easily be the first time that many people had even heard of Martha is Dead, and having a game in the psychological thriller genre with content that’s so disturbing that Sony deemed it inappropriate for players to engage with could be a selling point for a certain type of audience. There’s the adage that any press is good press, and Martha is Dead publisher Wired Productions sure took this saying to heart when it announced that the PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 versions of the game would be censored by having to remove the interactive aspects of certain disturbing scenes.
