This game rules! I was happy when it ended and felt satisfied, and then I realized I just beat the first level. So hurray, more game!

Its more Indiana Jones! The writing is less engaging but the puzzles are fun and the ending is awesome.

Similar to Atomicrops, the main issue with these two games is that the incredible art style distracts you from what is trying to kill you on screen. For me, I'm not that sweaty. On hard difficulties I bet I would learn to hate this game. I wish that everything that hurt you had some sort of obvious red outline, but then the game wouldn't look as good. So instead, you will have to touch everything to find out if this spikey-ball is something that hurts you, or something you can hit to hurt others.

Comment-er adds that my gripe is avoidable! I did die a few times in this segment but it was the only challenge I ran into. The rest of the game was smooth. Puzzles were tuned perfectly, I never looked for a guide or felt too lost but I never instantly 'got it' either. Try this out!


old review:
Nearly Perfect!

My one small gripe is the inconsistency with a particular enemy in a segment near the end of the game that requires you to be close to it to stun it. I think the intention is that while you're burning it, they wont hit you. That isnt the case, and you end up having to tank hits and rely on heals. This feels unintentional and lanky. Additionally, the monster can camp the fireplace you sneak into. Another guaranteed spank. These are small nitpicks but I did find it frustrating because the rest of the game is very polished!

I play this with my parents and husband every Friday and we do two missions each time. It's been great.

Crucify me. I'm on the right side of history. Ray tracing lighting is the GenAI of graphic tech. A gimmick for lazy grifters. Something no one asked for now pushed on consumers and we are forced to eat it. The way every phone has a 'smart ai' and 'generated art apps' built in even though no one gaf's- identical to this forced RTX ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. You guys pretend to know and care because you've been sold that the more accurate doomguys helmet reflects a gib the more epic your experience is- but deep down you know this is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Games should get easier to run. Games should be visually clearer. We are regressing. This isn't like when HL2 came out and everyone had to upgrade. Those were innovations in physics and things that made the experience better.

Walk up to a metallic surface, look at the fur on the cape against the landscape. Strafe left and right while staring at a light source. There is artifacting worse than a 480p YouTube video of Minecraft rain from 2011.

I'd ♥♥♥♥♥♥ end my life if I was on the art team sweating out these beautiful worlds and characters only to see the final product turn into noisy sludge. The tech team should be embarrassed and stop sniffing Nvidia's farts.

ID use to impress me so much. The things they did with RAGE, even all the way back to the OG games. There's a legacy thats streak has ended now with this game.

Everything about this game is amazing except for TWO THINGS.
I wish there was an option for only subtitles for the non-native language. I hate subtitles in games, they're distracting, but there are long latin or polish speaking segments. Without subtitles, you get nothing. With subtitles, you get everything.
