Emotion from an unlikely place

This trailer caught my eye. I'm not pushing for an apocalyptic-zombie-slaughter-fest for my next project but I found this surprisingly emotive despite the subject matter.

I suspect I've been suckered by some beautifully affecting music and a character that's around the same age as my daughter.

I've been told the game itself is pants though I do like the theme of taking the normal and twisting it (as all good horrors do).

The story excerpt is presented backwards but, as a viewer, you yearn to see the start while almost believing that the ending can be changed.
