One of 2017's best games. It's best just to play it rather than read about it, but if you have any interest in the genre then this is a must play.

Every game seems to need zombies these days, but this makes for an interesting twist on the B&C gameplay, so I'll give it a pass.

Much like the Lemmings games of old, you have a number of creatures you constantly head in one direction and cannot be directly controlled. You guide them around with special units and by influencing the map. The difference here is that instead of preventing them from killing themselves, you must guide them to feast on the delicious brains of the human survivors. This is quite satisfying in itself, but many of the levels feel a bit too scripted, like there's one and only one way to solve it and you just have to try to figure it out. More possible solutions would allow for more creativity.

In a train game one of the most important things is to make laying out tracks and routes easy to go and intuitive, and this game just doesn't do that. Added to that, it's fairly buggy and the developers abandoned it to work on Transport Fever instead, so it's really not worth playing unless you are somehow starved for a train game and able to pick this up cheap,

The Chosen make interesting foes, briefly. The problem is, xcom2 is a game that wants to be replayed, but the more scripted stuff they add the more annoying it gets to replay. Every game thereafter your crew are mystified by these story beats which you the player already know the answers too. Firaxis need to decide if they are making a cinematic 'play once' game, or a semi-randomised replayer, because mixing the two just doesn't work.

The Lost are more of the same, every single time they appear you get the little 'oh! zombies! gasp!' reaction clip, but this can happen dozens or hundreds of times during a campaign. Fighting them is as repetitive as their forced reaction clip, mostly they have low HP and can be chainkilled. Like they are so numerous and yet easy to kill, a new mechanic was added where oneshotting them counts as a free action, It's pretty tedious, but at least some mods exist to automatically shoot all the oneshottable Lost.

The new classes and factions are fun to play with, but the powers they give you hasn't been matched by an increase in difficulty, so they allow you to dominate the already outclasses aliens even harder than before.

I couldn't play the game, because buttons are not working all the time. Sometimes I need to click 5 times to different positions on the button to make it work. Therefore, I quit playing after 10 mins trial.

As of writing this review I'm playing this game on a MacOS High Sierra 10.13.3 on iMac late 2015/ 2,8 i5 / 8GB / Intel Iris Pro 6200 with everything on high and maxed out and of course it runs great.

I remember playing this back on my PSX. I just saw it here on sale, didn't even know they re-released it or anything. And it all came back to me. One of the first ever games that had this great story-telling feeling that Telltale gives you nowadays and which I really like to pass the time with a game without having to go through hoops to have fun after a long days work.

If you like adventures and a solid story. You're here!
Dated graphics of course cuz this is super old but all the 90s kids will appreciate this game if not for the memories.

If you liked LIMBO and Inside you'll definitely like this game. Very imaginative and tense. Also very short though.
