Originally a title for the Nintendo Wii U, the game’s plot feels as fragmented as this post is possibly going to be. Yet I shall do my best here. No promises.
Alright, starts off as this guy who’s worked his ass off (even had what I would call ‘insane overtime’), yet through all of his efforts, he isn’t seen as the best employee ever. He’s just barely there. He feels he must go to drastic measures and release some clones into the facility. Perhaps in a way to make the number 1 guy look bad (yet this was never really shown in detail) and finally get him into first place (he feels he really deserves it).
The clones themselves, are little men that wear goggles(no, they are NOT related to the Minions). You’re one of these guys, except your goggles change color. A bit later in the game, it’s discovered these goggles tell you if you’re seen or not. This will play vital later on as you must remain in the shadows.
So you play these strange levels, seeing your fellow clones also trying to escape. Occasionally, you see words on the wall. Who is this… thing? I still have no idea. This is where the “fragmented” part comes in. Yet in ways, it almost.. and I mean almost plays similar to the Portal series.
You do manage to get in one of the test chambers, and it telling you to hack computers to open the door. Once you do, there’s a malfunction.. and the room decides to want to kill you.
Somehow you manage to get outside of the facility, with the words telling you how “you’re not safe here” and to “go back to the testing area”… Portal 1 much?
You apparently have a change of heart (by jumping around and stuff of these levels) and make it back to the test areas. The words seem to stay with you, trying to get you to trust them. But occasionally it turns into a trap. So these words… is this GlaDOS?
Still confused what the hell is going on. Think it’s time for my review;
Good:
-It doesn’t crash, and doesn’t look broken or fan-made. That’s always a good thing.
Bad:
-Confusing plot. Confusing gameplay.
-They could had did some voiceovers without putting everything into subtitles.
.
Final Review: This game, I feel would be good if you were really, really bored and desperate to play anything. Me personally, I just don’t know. Hopefully the game makes more sense as you play it.
It’s not shit compared to some of the other titles I’ve seen on PS+.
