Critic Reviews for NORCO
Norco is a beautiful, surprising, human, and utterly magnetic debut.
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.
Don't let NORCO be lost to time: this is a must-play for those who don't mind a depressing tale.
Norco is the good kind of point-and-click game; its engaging story is paired with a great world and solidly enjoyable gameplay for an experience that shouldn't be missed by fans of the genre.
