    It's not bad. A couple of puzzles can be a bit annoying especially at the start, and the combat is very much "eh", but it looks good, has a great atmosphere and a decent story. Too bad the trophies are just as bugged on the PS4 as they are on the PC, with no fix incoming. For me it was the "Merciful" trophy.

    A few obtuse puzzles, but otherwise solvable. The fighting element was good. The story was satisfactory. I actually wish the game had been a bit longer. As a discount purchase that'll last an hour or three (depending on your skill and savvy), it was good.

    The game is mediocre at best, the controls are pretty horrid when it comes to controlling the actual character, but other than that the story is fine, skip this game unless it is on a sale

    The Fall is a thought-provoking title with a clever narrative that explores rogue AI in a unique and interesting way.

    Its deep and thoughtful explorations into the technicalities of AI are intelligent and surprisingly thought provoking. It’s unfortunately hindered by clunky mechanics and overly complicated puzzles that often border on the obtuse when it comes to the specifics required to finish them.

    The controls could be more intuitive, as could interacting with objects, but overall The Fall's winning combination of great storyline, well-penned script and impressive game world makes it one of the best indie titles out there.
