The Robot and the Robot
"The Girl and the Robot is a boring, repetitive, buggy and all around frustrating experience. Not only is the story completely vague, the gameplay stiff, the characters lifeless, but it also has the audacity to end on a cliffhanger. Not that ending on a cliffhanger had really any impact since there is no reason to care about the story, but it just felt like a slap in the face after a kick in the groin of having to play through it and get that ending. Charging $9.99 for less than a 3 hour game that they didn’t tell you is episodic is also quite shady. If there is one thing I’ll give it credit for is that it at least tried something different than the majority of titles now, even if it did fail unbelievably hard."
Action platformers are classic genre. Ever since the days of Portal, players have sought out these games as they typically provide 2 things: challenging puzzles that make you think outside the box, and a fun narrative.
Console Obsession writes: "The Girl and the Robot is in no way a competitor to The Last Guardian or ICO. By their standards, this is a pretty sub-par game, jumping on the “two characters putting aside their differences and working together” preachy bandwagon. First impressions of this successfully funded Kickstarter game is the obvious drop in the quality of the graphics – if anything, it looks like a PS2 HD Remaster. Animations and character movement also feel very stiff – not very good considering the game features combat."
Sean @ FG: The Girl and The Robot have made their way to the PS4 and it’s a promising start for a fledgling developer. The FingerGuns review.
It's funny, if you go look at the steam reviews. You can tell all the positive ones are from the developers or kickstart backers haha
Sounds like my kind of game. It appears to have an element of perfection about it.
