Jan 17, 2023It’s hard not to hold Re:Call’s larger stumbles against it, only because any honest investment in its original ideas and systems fails to come together in a satisfying or rewarding way. Some of its most exciting or unusual puzzles far outclass later sections with rote stealth vision-cone mechanics. Re:Call is worth investigating with a playthrough - just be prepared for a paradigm shift just when things are getting good.
