Resident Evil: Revelations is a brilliant survival horror game. It's B-movie story is executed extremely well and is vastly entertaining. It's over the top and ridiculous, but just in the right amount. The story is brought in a number of short 'episodes', brought to the player as if it were a tv-series. The game is also scary in just the right amount. The horror and the action are perfectly balanced, and the tension in the tight corridors is real.
Mostly taking place aboard an abandoned cruise, the story involves unraveling the mystery surrounding a certain terrorist group. Being on board a cruise ship, the narrow corridors and tight spaces result in the game using the capabilities of the 3DS system in a very clever way and it wouldn't even look out of place on consoles. In fact, that's probably what Capcom thought, because it came to consoles afterwards.
