    Tequila Work's Deadlight returns with a new survival mode and the same excellent artwork in 1080p, but the physical issues of the original game haven't been solved.

    Rehashed version of the Deadlight doesn´t have anything to offer to the original game players. It doesn´t bring anything refreshing – so the game still suffers from poor controls and short playing time. But newcomers could be attracted by fast-paced, atmospheric and visually beautiful arcade game.

    - Terribly linear level design
    - Puzzles are not challenging at all
    - Sometimes visuals are misleading, which result that some object you can interact and some with similar looks won't have that feature

The art while playing is Great until you get to their cheap ugly cutscenes just plain ugly. Deadlight is just a platformer with another bland zombie story and mediocre gameplay but it's beautiful to look at.… Full Review »
