So I had this game done at 97% for the past two weeks but one trophy was and is glitched. However the community found a work around and I finally got around to doing it.
The Quarry is a game made by Supermassive, Until Dawn and Dark Pictures Anthology fame. This is more on the scale of Until Dawn however. A far longer and much more detailed game than the smaller Dark Pictures games.
The plot itself is a throwback to 80's slasher films where 8 camp councillors find themselves caught up in a horror fest post counselling. Drama and terror ensue ~
Gameplay wise, we are looking at what you'd expect. An interactive movie with some gameplay sections that require you to move and collect items to give you that sweet sweet ~lore~
So if you've ever played one of their games or a TellTale game, you know exactly what to expect. They do not do anything to innovate the genre which is okay by my standards. It's a genre that doesn't happen often and I enjoy it's movie like qualities.
Obviously in a game like this, the plot is everything. It kinda stacks up?
I have a love hate relationship with this game. I enjoy a lot of the characters and enjoyed where it was going but I've had a lot of time to think on this game and I kinda don't like the ending.
It doesn't do it for me which is a shame given that I enjoy 90% of what this game offers. Stand outs and shout outs to Dylan, Ryan and Laura. Easily my favourite 3 characters and are what got me cheering more than anything in this game.
The other characters are still really good and are acted perfectly. I do love every actor and all their mocap work. There's a lot of moments where it genuinely feels real.
Fuck Emma tho. She sucks. She is the worst and I'm glad this a game she can die over and over again (great actor tho, plays the role perfectly. Just an awful human being of a character)
The plot does have really cool and strong elements that kept Pumkin and I as we played laughing and enthralled.
It's a game that is super solid in one run but when you play it more and more. You see the kinks and weaker parts a lot easier and more so.
However, if you enjoy 80's thriller/slasher movies. You're already set to enjoy this. This game will give you a fantastic experience.
But not for it's current price tag. Please wait for a sale lol
If you don't like interactive movies or dislike corny thrillers. This isn't for you at all.
Ultimately, I enjoyed The Quarry but it isn't without it's issues.
