Game has a nice feel of suspence and urgency to it. Great story and wrtiting, awe inspiring art and music. And that haven't happened to me in quite some time. Got me really hooked from the openning sequence right till the end, so i finnished the whole game in one sitting. I will most definitely buy more games from Night School Studio if I ever see them in the future.

I got it for free during Xbox's "Games With Gold" in September, but I would definitely tell someone to pay the $20 for the game if they asked. I actually had goosebumps during some of the scenes near the end! Between the voice acting, the solid plot, and the ability to make my own decisions really made me grow somewhat attached to its characters. It is brilliant in this game! The young men and women that played the voice of the game's characters made the entire story so convincing, believable, and smooth. I saved the best for last: the voice acting. The decisions you make will determine what type of ending the story gets. If also offers several chances to make your decision between two (and sometimes more) "major" choices, which will determine the way your story will unfold, and while the general plot is the same in the big picture, the devil is in the details. Throughout the story, it gives you 2-3 dialogue options in its many, many conversations, allowing you to choose what option you think is best. The gameplay is great as well, and fitting for the type of game. Whenever I would take a break from the game to do some "adulting", I would just sit there and wonder what was going to happen next. It's a story game, right? How's the story? The story was awesome! I didn't know what to expect going in, but despite the slow beginning, it still managed to hook me from the very first scene, and kept me guessing during my entire playthrough. It wasn't the worst I've seen in a story, but it sure did leave me wanting more and feeling somewhat incomplete inside (sounds cheesy, right?). interesting, and perhaps confusing to some. Without spoiling anything, the ending is definitely. This does *not* mean the beginning is bad, by all means - but the more you play, the better it gets! The last thing that I would consider somewhat negative is the ending. The second thing is that the beginning may seem slow for some (it did for me). I found that if you actually wait for your followers to finish their animations, then you shouldn't have any problems. I have experienced this as well, but only once. I'll begin with the bad: Some of the other reviews have mentioned experiencing several glitches throughout the game where their followers would get "stuck" in places, forcing a restart.

Before you consider purchasing this title, just know that it is a story-telling game there isn't a *ton* of interaction in it, but definitely enough to keep you entertained the whole time.

The kind of game you might like if you like melee combat with a third person stamina bar, but might not be the kind of must-play you were playing when it came out.Īs always, a handful of games leave the service including our beloved Oxenfree, but here is the full list of what comes and goes: Xbox Game Pass on PC: February Game List Matt liked it in his review despite himself, but it feels like it’s thoroughly in the 7/10 territory. It joins the service on February 18.Ĭode Vein now feels like the perfect Game Pass game to me and it’s also arriving on February 18th.
It is a racing game that focuses on beautiful collisions where both tracks and cars are deformed during the course of a race. 8, but it has kept updating and it’s still great fun.
