In The Quarry, players take control of a group of teenagers that are trying to survive a night at Hackett's Quarry. As fans watch the fates of these teenagers unfold, they may begin to have questions about the total length of The Quarry. Additionally, some players may wonder how many chapters the game's story is split into, and this guide is here to shine some light on both of these topics.
How Long to Beat The Quarry
Players should expect their first playthroughs of The Quarry to last around 10 hours. While that is not a tremendous amount of time, the title is actually slightly longer than developer Supermassive Games' other recent interactive horror games. Those games include Man of Medan, Little Hope, and House of Ashes, all of which are part of The Dark Pictures Anthology, and fans may be happy to learn that The Quarry is a more protracted experience.
Furthermore, players can extend their time with the game by undertaking additional playthroughs in which they make different decisions. Indeed, the choices that fans make impact the story and ending in The Quarry, and it may take players quite a while to see all the cinematics in the game. Notably, the Death Rewind feature that unlocks upon beating the game will make it easier for fans to try out different actions and access unique consequences in playthroughs beyond the first one.
Players can also get more out of the title by experimenting with its Movie Mode, which allows fans to set desired behaviors for each character and then watch how they manifest. There is an online multiplayer component to The Quarry as well, in which friends can make decisions together, though that will not be available at launch. All of this together means that the aforementioned 10 hours for a first playthrough are just the beginning of what the game has to offer.
How Many Chapters in The Quarry
The Quarry is composed of a prologue, an epilogue, and 10 story chapters. While those chapters are not identical in length, fans of horror video games can use this information to determine their approximate position within the story. And for those that would like to know even more about the game's chapters, here are their titles, though players should be aware of the fact that they may act as spoilers before reading on:
