Blending a satirical adventure with VR gameplay, in our The Last Worker review we find little boxes full of narrative.
Nine virtual reality games and projects have been shortlisted for the annual TIGA Games Industry Awards in 2023.
The Last Worker is a narrative sci-fi video game looking at a dystopian world where all except one has lost their job to machines.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "Missed opportunity is – sadly – endemic to The Last Worker as a whole. The ground to cover in satirizing Not Amazon™ is ripe and plentiful, but most critiques feel surface-level or thematically confused. The core box-fetching gameplay is subtly satisfying, but gets crowded out by ancillary mechanics that should’ve been returned and refunded. It wants to capture an audience with humor, good production values, and a novel approach to exploring these topics, but ultimately doesn't feel properly-packaged."
