Iconic game with one of the most influential narratives ever told in the medium. Airtight and concise plot that's sort of generic but whats really the focus is creating engaging and meaningful characters that span the entire game. However, the gameplay is pretty mediocre, a lot of it is just climbing ladders, searching drawers for scraps and the actual combat isn't too interesting. Still, its storytelling is some of the best I've seen in a game, and it's effect on the video game industry is huge (whether that's a positive or negative), so it ultimately gets a pass.
