Lee Mehr's Reviews

His gaming history spans several console generations: N64 & NES at home while enjoying some Playstation, SEGA, and PC titles elsewhere. Being an Independent Contractor by trade (electric, plumbing, etc.) affords him more gaming luxuries today though. Reader warning: each click given to his articles only helps to inflate his Texas-sized ego. Who knows? He may become your next favorite game critic to detest. [NOTE: Reviews from VGChartz, DarkStation, & TechRaptor reflect a more wide-ranging spectrum to review scores. Although still reflecting the score closest to my personal opinion, reviews from GamingNexus reflect a scholastic value--a heavier emphasis on 7-10 scale.] [NOTE #2: All PS4 games I played were on a secondary PSN ID, not the one listed.]

It should be removed from physical & digital shelves until it can be finished without resorting to banging your skull against sheetrock.

The initial doldrums won’t easily sell everyone – especially with some design drawbacks and an $11.99 price point, but it makes way for a succinctly-designed adventure that plunges further and further into insanity.

3 / 10.0 - Redfall
Jun 7, 2023

Redfall's grocery list of problems, from storytelling to open world design, are so extensive that it seems more humane to drive a stake through this beating heart – if you can find it.

Mia and the Dragon Princess wants to harness the spirit of a B-movie adventure serial, but forgets to have any coherence or fun.

With a new coach in his corner, Kao finds more spring in his step and gives a stronger performance than the main title.

Benedict Fox's phantasmagorical detective work through the minds of the recently-deceased flaunts a wonderful & moody aesthetic, but unpolished gameplay left me nearly as cold as his corpses.

6 / 10.0 - Fran Bow
May 30, 2023

While a scattershot finale and outdated point-n-click mechanics diminish Fran Bow's broader appeal, there are enough positives for adventure fans to appreciate this vividly horrific Wonderland.

The building blocks of Legends' personality and hybrid design are there, but Mojang & Blackbird fumbled with this blueprint.

May 18, 2023

From mechanics to personality, Modus Studios' genre-mashup runs into major trouble by the first chords.

Despite some nasty snags on the line, DREDGE is nevertheless a rare catch.

4 / 10.0 - Road 96: Mile 0
May 7, 2023

The wishful beginnings to Road 96 quickly veer off-course due to clumsy gameplay, weak writing, inconsistent production values, and transparently purposeless direction.

5.5 / 10.0 - The Last Worker
May 6, 2023

Although The Last Worker's novel work-gameplay template & tangible proximity to its critiques earns some credit, it often fumbles with the delivery.

Awaceb's open world sandbox and serene vistas capture the splendor of a tropical vacation, but certain design tropes eventually make progress feel like a chore.

While The Wreck's mature script will earn some ardent fans, I wish it left more of a dent with me.

9 / 10.0 - Before Your Eyes
Apr 11, 2023

Whereas scores of other titles look towards filling potential holes with content, Before Your Eyes has a more special goal in mind: making you appreciate each and every second.

Tonguç Bodur earns some credit for handling this work as a solo developer, but that's not enough for me to drink the Kool-Aid.

7.5 / 10.0 - Cosmonious High
Mar 27, 2023

Owlchemy Labs doesn't fully capture the potential complexity and polish of this VR template, but your first day at Cosmonious High is still a worthwhile treat.

4.5 / 10.0 - Wanted: Dead
Mar 14, 2023

Wanted: Dead captures the spirit of schlockier action blockbusters that've been long forgotten, but doesn't successfully argue why they deserve a comeback.

6.5 / 10.0 - Deliver Us Mars
Mar 7, 2023

There's more creative thrust in KeokeN's sophomore effort - especially in terms of storytelling, but not quite enough to match its stellar ambitions.

Motive reignites what makes Dead Space stand out in the survival-horror genre; it’s not in just the Resident Evil 4 design similarities, nor the stylistic inspirations of The Thing or Event Horizon, but the whole gestalt of soaking in so many identities while still being unique in its own right.
