    Late Shift is an interesting update on the idea of the interactive movie. While it brings decent tv-quality production values and soap opera level acting to a genre notoriously riddled with far worse, it still doesn’t do enough to stand out as a film, nor offer enough interactivity as a game. There’s potential for this template, but the interactivity needs to be much more ambitious.

    If you really boil it down, Late Shift is a movie with a plot that you can alter. Sadly, that plot isn't very good. Gameplay is minimal, and where The Bunker struck a decent balance, the lack of interaction here only serves to make the experience more of a slog. This can only be described as a complete disappointment.

    Wales Interactive’s latest is neither an interactive movie nor a video game, but as a curious experiment it shows potential.

    A bit short, but I played twice and probably will do it again after some time. Could not hold my self from reading all endings and story branches. In my opinion this film is quite clever, there are interesting ideas. I hope more such projects come on market.
    But keep in mind, I like a lot interactive movie games. For me this experience was nearly good to Quantic Dream games, but of course much shorter.    … Full Review »
