Nice horror game oozing with style. It manages to be scary while not relying on gore or shock.
I did get lost a few times, but I would say the game does communicate nicely what you need to do, which is what games like these often struggle with.

On my list of favorite games. It's a world that immerses you with deep mechanics that utilizes the environment, and allows for some emergent gameplay despite being a simpler immersive sim.
It's timeless and a piece of art. The style and atmosphere needs no introduction, it truly feels like a place. I look back at memories for this game when thinking of the best gaming moments.
Also, it teaches you how Objectivism is objectively bad. May also have indirectly made me discover Libertarian Socialism. The political commentary manages to be both subtle and clear.

Much of the same from Bioshock, but I found the gameplay to be a tad better. It's more of the same, but it's more focused, cause they used what clearly worked.
It's more Bioshock. Therefore more of my all time favorites.

Now, it's no Bioshock 1 or 2. But it's still an amazing game, even if the story didn't quite hook me as much, and was rather confusing for the sake of it.
One thing I really liked is how the game's answer to Plasmids, ran out quicker, and I found that I had to use them more strategically. I didn't have an infinite supply, so every use packed a punch.
Every nook and cranny is an artpeice just like the previous games, but the world here didn't feel as immersive and timeless.

Story is too complex for me to analyze.
But it's essentially more great Bioshock environments and gameplay, but without the timeless story. It was fun for the gameplay and upgraded visuals alone. A last visit to Rapture? That's enough for me to have a good time.

Was fun to play, like the last DLC and for the same reasons. The story is lost on me, I consider it not cannon. Let's pretend it's fanfiction. That doesn't take away from more breathtaking Rapture environments, worth it for that alone.

I remember having a lot of fun with this

I can see why this gets addicting, but I binge played for almost 7 hours and just didn't return. Not because it's bad, I don't know why.
One of my childhood games. I never managed to complete it fully when little.
This is surprisingly good for an old movie tie-in game. It's a nice platformer with a crazy amount of variation from different gameplay scenarios. I unironically recommend it if you're looking for a kind of short game with lots of variation.
