Review: The Baconing | VideoGameWriters

VGW: Without a strong narrative to compel you forward through the quest, the game relies on humor and gameplay to keep you going. Sadly, both of those elements feel very middle-of-the-road, and serve as a constant reminder that you could be playing something more gripping, something that makes you feel like you HAVE to beat the next boss and see the next level. Nothing in The Baconing has that kind of urgent hook, and it makes the whole thing just feel rather skippable, especially as a single player. While this would make an EXCELLENT title on a mobile device (especially on iOS), it’s not the sort of game that can seriously compete for your dedicated console session time.
