We really wanted to like this game but we found the narrative didn’t seem to fit the game and the puzzles weren’t enjoyable to us. I’d imagine some players will click and blitz this game, but unfortunately this wasn’t the game for us.
We find ourselves pixelated into a sci-fi computer game and need to beat the final level boss ‘the brain’ to escape.
Press Start is, I’m sad to say, all fur coat and no trousers. It looks incredible, and as a set piece it’s one of Cardiff’s finest. However, it’s brought down by a lack of diverse, quality puzzles and an lacklustre conclusion.
Our team of two breezed through it, but I’d say no more than three people in the room due to its size. You’ll also likely be not doing anything for portions of the game while the rest of the team crack on.
