Latest Title Review #2 - 2019
I don't think I've ever played a game like this before. A dungeon crawler/visual novel that tells a compelling story about 7 characters who wake up in some sort of purgatory, who each represent one of the deadly sins. Each "level" has you exploring each character's backstory, as you travel through different liminal spaces, that each represent a location behind each character's tragic deaths.
I never did get a chance to finish this one, but I certainly look forward to replaying it now that I know better how the game's mechanics work. It took me a long time to get used to the grid style movement in FPS, and just as well, it took me awhile to realize I can interact with icons that pop up on the screen (like the one that you need to click on that stops the ceiling from caving in on you). Once I got those things down, I was crawling with ease, and the challenges that laid before me were intense fun. I've no clue how this story ends, but to this day, I still think about this title, and wonder where it may lead. Indeed, I need to return to this game.
