Review: Murdered: Soul Suspect

We’re meant to believe that solving the mystery of the Bell Killer would redeem Ronan and allow him the peace to move on, but nothing about the game gives the impression that he deserves it.

The profiling system isn’t as deep as expected, but still offers remarkably strong and subtly creepy world-building away from the main plot.

Review: Child of Light

Someone will likely prove this statement wrong, but there hasn’t been a game that’s run this far with the storybook conceit, and if there is, it’s a near-certainty it wasn’t executed with this much beauty, heart, and care.

The motion controls and the touchpad get a decent, well-integrated workout, world detail is staggering, and the particle and lighting effects of Delsin’s powers are breathtaking.
