"RoboCop: Rogue City" looks surprisingly good and can keep up with current triple-A productions in terms of level design. However, there are deductions for the mostly handsome, but very wooden animated character models. In addition, there are unsightly performance and sound problems in the cutscenes. Teyon keeps the story almost a little too close to the film templates, stages it a bit sluggishly and stubbornly marches on well-trodden paths. The gameplay, on the other hand, is fun. The mix of detective role-playing and shooting action motivates until the end thanks to varied levels and decent variety of enemies, even if it lacks a bit of depth overall. A few more skills and more exciting consequences in the dialogue decisions wouldn't have hurt either.

85% - Jusant
Oct 31, 2023

Jusant is a wonderful gaming experience with an almost meditative flow, supported by an atmospheric soundtrack and almost perfectly balanced game mechanics. Unfortunately, it's already over after about five hours. In the end, however, you are left with a strong message and the great feeling of having achieved something.

Ad Infinitum wraps a deeply moving story of trauma, loss, fear, and self-discovery into a horror game that gets under your skin. The sound design is fantastic and provides numerous moments of suspense. However, the debut effort from German studio Hekate also suffers from gameplay flaws and clumsy animations. But if you can get into the story and overlook the aforementioned flaws, Ad Infinitum is an excellent horror game with depth.
