Critic Reviews for NORCO
Norco is a beautiful, surprising, human, and utterly magnetic debut.
One of the best story-based games of the year, with a complex mix of dystopian sci-fi, religious meditation, and a razor-sharp script.
I’ve never played a game like Norco, which elegantly celebrates and admonishes its cultural roots while simultaneously chronicling a strange doomsday scenario. Kay and Catherine’s shattered America is not so dissimilar from our own – burgeoning industrial complexes threaten to displace low-income families, automated systems supersede human workers, and the filthy rich work around the clock to deter upward mobility. The game isn’t always gloomy. One cool night, I sat atop City Hall and gazed at the constellations with a stranger. Hours earlier, I flipped through treasured memories on a faulty flatscreen TV. Norco is an unforgettable reminder that there’s an inherent beauty behind the madness.
Norco weaves a compelling and utterly wonderful story that's dark, beautiful, evocative, and distinctly human.
A hallmark of excellence. There may be flaws, but they are negligible and won't cause massive damage.
What saves Norco is that the visions on offer belong as much to the imagined as the troublingly real.
This award-winning single-person adventure, set in a run-down refinery town, is full of compelling mysteries
