This game is like a broken Disneyland for Chornobyl-crazed nerds.

It has all the notable locations and characters but with 'a twist'. Like - oh, you remember this place? It's a bloodsucker brothel now. And d'you remember that lovable dude? He's a lovable loser alcoholic now.

This works fine for me. I'm having a blast travelling through the zone, taking pictures and gasping at all the spanking new visuals.

But it must be said - the VIBES are off. The zone doesn't feel dangerous. I'm not scared of the nights. The chimeras and controllers are not playing heart attack simulator with me. 30 hours in and I still can't afford to upgrade another AR. Oh and Sakharov(!!) is still to be found!

So yeah. I can't recommend this game to a new player. But hey - if you, like me, know your way around Pripyat - buy it and enjoy yourselves, you sick irradiated bastards.

You know what? I'd really like to have my life narrated by The Geralt of Rivia.

Like: "Anon thought long and hard why did he come in the kitchen in the first place. No useful memories came up, so he just grabbed an apple and went on with his life." How cool would that be, huh??

Jokes aside I really enjoyed this cutesy hand drawn gore-fest. It has a soul and a bunch of mole puns (the good ones).

9/10. Now we wait for the sequel

This is pure KINO. It takes you on a short whimsical journey full of pixelated gore, cosmic horrors, text-based gore, fish people armed with forbidden magic and an option to pet dogs.

The pixelated barf-like aesthetic, the old-school music and competent writing brings back memories of games that used to be standard for this type of genre. Now they are as rare as games on PS5.

10/10, can recommend

This game is so sneaky you need an online guide for an in-game guide.
And even if you have an online guide you'll still miss some crucial things that might've saved you some nervous matter in a cathedral gauntlet of all places.

8/10 double catsing fire and ice is truly a god-tier combo

This game has the makings of the best modern trpg on the market..... but it doesn't feel like one. Something just feels off for some reason.

Still - a solid game nonetheless. 7/10

This Sony 'exclusive' is giving me mixed vibes:

Story: good
Gameplay: meh

Driving: good
Stealthing: bad

Shooting: hectic
Fighting: bad

Level design: good
Climeable boxes everywhere: wut

Art direction: good
Climbing: non-stop

Acting & banter: exceptional
Optimization: not so much

Overall: 7/10. Full price worthy? I dunno

The fish, women and I are in polyamorous relationship built on mutual trust and regular upgrades to harpoon and air tanks

8/10, not bad

Man this atmosphere is something else.

Heard an Inception-like sound out in the night. The car was some ways away so I heroically ran to it like a rabid squirrel. Got in, turned comforting music on and just sat there until battery died.

10/10. Make repair putty cheaper

Glad the devs were barve enough to leave all of the bone goons in the game.

Can't have good old-fashion bone goon session nowadays because of woke.

8/10

CAIT is so good I'd save him on my post apocalypsis USB drive.

Right next to a copy of CS 1.5 and photos of edible mushrooms.

P.S. The game is okay. 7/10
