    Whether you watched and loved Peaky Blinders or not, stay away from this game as it is one of the worst adopted video games of at least this generation.

    Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is stuck between abstraction and fan fiction, ambition and restraint. At its best, it’s streamlined; at worst, stifling and predetermined. Give me an Alfie Solomons rum-empire management game, and you’d have my attention.

    Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is a strategy game that requires very little strategy for much of its short running time. While it does eventually present a little more challenge in the closing chapters, the hum-drum narrative and bargain-basement cut-scenes won't provide you with much incentive to persevere through the duller moments which make up most of the game. If you're a massive fan of the show waiting for the next season, then you're probably better off just forming your own gang while talking in a comedy Brummie accent.

Didn't have much of a budget, so there is no spoken text, but the artwork is solid and the soundtrack is good. The puzzles are clever and it becomes increasingly complex as you progress through the game. Later on, those gold times really are a bit of a challenge, but the always remain doable. I'm glad I supported this studio by buying this game at full price (which was €20, so okayish in my book for roughly 8-10 hours of fun gameplay and an easy platinum trophy.… Full Review »
