2011 – Ubisoft – One Player
The Good
- Interesting Gimmick where you manipulate the world using literal God Power
- Eventually there is a sandbox mode, which is neat.
The Bad
- The gimmick is way more limited than it is made out to be and the world tends to “right” itself
- The above makes a lot of the levels frustrating since you try to do X but it just sort of fails…
- By the time you unlock the Sandbox, you’ll hate the game play.
In Depth
Ok, I tried… I really tried. If possible, I try to complete a game before I do a review of it. This means being late to the game most of the time but it also means I get to experience all that the game has to offer, which is the way it should be. There are exceptions for various reasons, some games don’t have a real ending, some are repetitious enough that it’s clear nothing more is going to be gained by continuing onward.
Others become so frustrating and irritating I just can’t being myself to finish it no matter how hard I want to. From Dust is one of the latter set there. (more…)
