Such a pretty game and such a good idea. Unfortunately the game ended up being just above average. It could have been great!
Deadlight is a zombie game. A puzzle platformer of sorts. You will be killing some zombies but the gameplay is more about figuring out how to move from screen to screen. It looks great and has some really good atmosphere. The story isn't too bad either.
However the game got progressively more difficult and towards the end you try something then it fails, press button to reload and do it all over again. I wish there wasn't instant death. See the main character can't swim, so if you land in water then you are dead. And the controls aren't very responsive at all. I'm not even going to talk about the illogical ending.
The game had such potential. The art direction is great. I can see what the creators wanted to achieve. They fell short though. It's still worth the play if you own it. It was one of the free XBox Live Games with Gold games.
