A squirming body horror labyrinth whose mix of ability-gating and backtracking slightly cramps its matchless creature design.
A weird, wry and wholesome underground puzzler with spellbinding art direction and music.
Persona 4 is a twisting tale of dreams gone rogue in a town sapped of purpose. It brings personal demons to life in gaudy but plausible ways, and uses this to rejuvenate the dog-eared framework of a town-and-dungeon fantasy RPG. Unceremonious as it is, the PC port leaves all of that peculiar magic intact. It’s just a shame that the insight and empathy on show here doesn’t extend to everybody.
A couple of nifty concepts can't save this uninspired genre piece from its shortage of character or fear.
This is far from the most polished remaster I’ve played, and the original was a hit-and-miss affair to begin with. Judged in terms of Platinum’s own end-of-level trophies, this earns a silver award at best.
Hypnotic art, otherworldly audio and captivating writing meet in an undersea exploration game that wants you to take your time.

A serene, quietly uplifting afternoon's entertainment for urban explorers and platform fans alike.
A conventional, easygoing scifi RPG with slightly wasted satirical elements that fades very quickly from the mind.
