Rainbow Gate
Critic Reviews for Rainbow Gate
I’d say the atmosphere for Rainbow Gate is fairly decent, but the animatronics lack the scare factor. IT improves when they emphasize them in darkness, but not really in gameplay, I find. The theme of being in a toy factory is pushed to the side too easily, as the whole building is just concrete everywhere you look. A weird part of this is the mine room segment. I really did not understand why this area was made. And why mines were scattered around. Notes you find, don’t offer that much in the ways of deeper lore. More so, just repeats itself. Some areas in general become rather tedious thanks to the animatronics camping around near a door you need to leave through. While other challenges like the revolving door section, which has you aiming to get to the centre, becomes infuriating. I dropped the game in the end parts of Rainbow Gate, as it just became boring and anger inducing. You are not able to truly hide underneath anything or in a closet. The only way is breaking line of sight. But in the Moon Bear segment, not even that will save you. I don’t think I had as much with fun this one as it is more of a saw-style, game than a casual mascot horror. The story isn’t really there either, beyond the initial letter at the start. So it is getting the Thumb Culture Silver Award.
