The final result is inconsistent, and what we find on our hands is an empty shell with gameplay mechanics inserted by force to give a semblance of meaning, to create what by definition would be a "video game" but which in practice it turns out to be a not very successful attempt to tell a story, unfortunately not so compelling. If two slices of bread enclosed a single lettuce leaf technically we would have a "sandwich", but it would be very difficult to call it such, and above all it wouldn’t satisfy anyone's palate.

In its primary aspects, the game lacks a backbone, which translates into a scarcity of true action and adrenaline, especially in situations where one would expect them such as bossfights and competitions which are portrayed minimally. This makes the game feel repetitive, being sometimes enjoyable but without any of the exciting peaks that one would expect to feel from the Redout races.

Re: Turn-One Way Trip is a game that I definitely started with good spirit, imagining to find a title with very simple mechanics but absurd and curious situations in line with other indie rpg horror genre products, and I was only partially disappointed; the lightness that characterizes the title actually remains one of its pivotal aspects, and all in all playing it was pleasant, at times interesting and fun, despite its limited content and depth. The biggest sore point lies in the epilogue of the plot: the final events are resolved in an unsatisfactory way, and it leaves us puzzled by the fact that everything is reduced to a minimum with so much approximation. A discreet title, a good pastime and a nice game for those looking for, as already mentioned, a "light" horror.
