    Not great! I can respect what they were trying to do (cash in on a successful franchise by repackaging the story in a worse format) but I really did not have a good time playing this.

    It might be because the game was built for two players and I played it solo, which made some parts of it way harder.

    Even for Resident Evil fans, this wouldn't be worth your time.    … Expand

    The camera work is tight on this rollercoaster, and the generous unlockable content makes this feel like much more of a love letter to fans. [September 2012, p75]

    For most of the time Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles fails to impress. Whilst it's certainly not the worst game out there, it struggles to rise above average, and I wonder if it would sell at all if not for the Resident Evil name behind it. If you're a fan of the franchise there's a good chance you'll get a kick out of this, but for everyone else I struggle to recommend it.
