"Everybodys Gone To The Rapture is a game that has intrigued me ever since the title was announced because not much had been known about it. This was a game that wouldnt have any (visual) violence. Developer The Chinese Room wanted to tell a story, and just happened to use video games as the medium because they believed it was the best way to immerse their audience in the story. For the most part, The Chinese Room is successful in making the participant feel totally immersed in this beautiful world even if some slow pacing (literally) and lack of interactivity in the environment hamper the end product. -- PlayStation Enthusiast

Chalgyr's Game Room writes: I have been hearing about Nobunaga's Ambition from Nick for a long time. If you read his Retro Reflection here, you realize just how long - we are talking NES days. He is not the only one who has been following the various updates and release announcements about Koei Tecmo's upcoming Nobunaga's Ambition: Sphere of Influence. Having had a chance to spend some time with the game, my thoughts are quite favorable - and I thought I would share the experience. Admittedly my tastes lean towards fantasy strategy titles, but science fiction and history simulations can be a lot of fun if they are done right as well. All of the early indicators point towards Nobunaga's Ambition: Sphere of Influence being done right. This is a series of games that has not seen much activity in North America in some time, but if this preview gives us a good read on what the final release quality will be, we should have a strong case for more titles like this in the future.

Walk gingerly to your PS4 and play this.

From the developers of "walking simulator," Dear Esther, and the "not exactly walking simulator," , comes a new "game" for "gamers" to "play" "exclusively" on their "Playstation 4" "video game" "consoles." [This is "commentary." ~Ed. Nick] The Chinese Room brings you Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture this time around, and frankly, whatever manner of mental gymnastics you need to perform to accept it in this space, it’s a wonderful example of non-traditional storytelling in our favorite medium. It’s not without its kinks, but while watching the credits scroll at the end, I just felt in awe of what I experienced.

Lewis at Nerd Rock writes: "Kings Quest: A Knight to Remember is a towering return to form from this well-loved adventure series and The Odd Gentlemen have really done its memory justice giving us a game that is chock-full of lovable and intriguing characters and graphically is a masterpiece."

Chalgyr's Game Room writes: While Arc System Works is no doubt best known for their take on the fighting genre, XBLAZE: Lost Memories shows that the talented team can pull of a completely different style of game as well. Set in the world as the popular Blazblue series, Lost Memories expands on the excellent story found in XBLAZE Code: Embryo and offers us an even broader look at the world in unique, interesting ways.

William Kirk at GameCloud writes: "When I finished episode four, I felt sick to my stomach. For a game that plays with so many clichés, it never ceases to amaze me how each episode still manages to surprise and draw me in further. Dark Room pulls at your heartstrings from the very beginning and doesnt hesitate to kick you when your guard is down. Its a feeling Ive only ever experienced while playing The Walking Dead, and now I sit here anxiously writing as I begin the wait for the finale. Things that used to bother me about earlier episodes dont anymore, and its rewarding to see solid continuity across the series. Its still quirky at its core, but Ive crossed all barriers of disbelief to immerse myself. Theres no stoping now!"

NZG: Im kind of lost for words after Life is Stranges fourth episode, Dark Room. When youre trying to write a review of something, this isnt exactly an enviable position. Part of this speechlessness has to do with some truly shocking, unexpected developments in the plot that eclipse even the ending of the previous episode.
