MonsterVine: "This one’s pretty niche. If you need action and accomplishment, give it a pass. If you like atmosphere, dialogue trees, and sometimes running into cats that tip well, you will enjoy."
Microsoft has announced that several games are leaving Xbox Game Pass for console, cloud, and PC. Among them are Ace Combat 7, Night Call, and more.
The Humble Raw Fury 2020 Bundle just launched today. It features games like Night Call, Mosaic, Kingdom Two Crowns, Bad North: Jotunn Edition, Whispers of a Machine, and more.
"Night Call ultimately feels like it’s missing something crucial to tie it all together. I think the game would’ve been better if it really was just about driving around Paris getting to know these people who are living out their everyday lives. The mystery-solving is half baked, and the fact that you can’t carry the stories of your passengers forward into future cases just makes me wish the mystery wasn’t there at all. I really did love the conversations I had with the game’s diverse cast, but in the end I was just left frustrated that I wouldn’t be able to see them through to their end without slogging through a lot of stuff I’d already seen."
I'm always interested in niche games like this. Never heard of it till now, but it seems like something I would like to try. Thanks for the review.
