Ahh yes…uncharted. The naughty dog series where a bloke is just trying to make money off of some treasure, and it pretty much never works. If someone usually mentions the uncharted series they usually have great things to say about the second game, the third game (not for me), and the fourth game…but never this one. So, is this game bad? Not necessarily, but it’s definitely not great either.

You play as Nathan drake, a descendent of the legendary Francis drake, on his way to discover the treasure of el dorado. So it’s a standard adventure plot with a love interest and a partner alongside you: elena and sully. You can kinda tell this game was really inspired by Tomb raider and Indiana jones with its similar ideas.

The gameplay is…it’s eh. Shooting isn’t really that great…like…it’s very likely for complaints…you really aren’t gonna like it that much especially coming from the later games. The puzzles also aren’t that extraordinary but at least they’re not unbearable. And climbing is climbing.

So…is uncharted 1 a ‘bad’ game? Not really. I stand by the fact the later games (maybe not 3) are probably better and refine things a lot.

Decent first game, mid gameplay, ok puzzles, some people really shouldn’t have survived during this game like geez

@Weatherby absolutely same, I was really disappointed with it. But that’s a review for another day. Thanks for commenting!
Yeah 3 is the worst one
