Incredibly memorable characters, and a vivid game world go a long way to make up for fairly average gameplay.
If you hear people trying to draw distinctions between this and Beyond Good and Evil, it's not entirely baseless. A likable cast of well developed characters, a memorable and vivid game world, solid game play, and a grea... Read Full Review

Lousy game design and controls
Lousy, lousy game controls, game play feels like Prince of Persia, explore and collect orbs and fight off mechs, etc., but Prince got good controls and more straight forward, even though the graphics are very nice but th... Read Full Review

A memorable journey filled with great characters is marred with inconsistent gameplay.
I can sum up my feelings for Enslaved: Odyssey to the West with one phrase: I enjoy everything but the gameplay. This is completely true: I love the post-apocalyptic setting, I love the characters, the ending was kinda m... Read Full Review

So very nearly a classic, but just falls short.
Enslaved is one of those games where you want to grab the developers, shake them and implore as to how they can have crafted a game with all the pieces to be a bonafide classic but then to fall short on putting it all to... Read Full Review

Good game
I purchased the game for $5 and expected to play it for an hour, lose interest but tell myself I WILL get back to it one day and never touch it again. So far so good though. No, this is not a $60 game but it is wor... Read Full Review

The excellent storytelling, great acting and fantastic pacing elevate it above the ranks of your average adventure game.
Although the first half hour of Enslaved would get anyone's snidey-sense tingling, what follows deserves more attention. As the game unfolds, you realise this isn't just another average action adventure. Yes, there are a... Read Full Review
