North Review | Switch Player
Aaron Potter from Switch Player writes, "The only way is onwards.
Of all the new genres to come out of the indie game boom, walking simulators have proved a good testcase for demonstrating how far creators can push ambiguity. North, the new investigative first-person adventure from developer Outland, makes a great claim as being the bravest yet in this regard, exploring themes like immigration and surveillance through the obscure and metaphorical instead of the literal. As a bite-sized journey North poses some interesting questions about the many Orwellian-inspired concepts it evokes, even if its execution isn’t always entirely successful."
