    While it could explore its mechanics a bit more and elaborate on some elements, Perception is a good proposal on the growing Nintendo Switch catalog.

    By putting you on the shoes of a blind woman, Perception creates a unique survival horror experience, with heavy focus on narrative. It does a good job of playing with your… well… perception of the darkness and your surroundings.

    I really enjoyed this game. Maybe because i didn't think of it as a "survival-horror" per se ... I saw it more as a unique game that allowsI really enjoyed this game. Maybe because i didn't think of it as a "survival-horror" per se ... I saw it more as a unique game that allows me to experience life like a blind person. I was invested in Carrie's journey and intrigued to discover what her connection to the house was. I mean, what a crazy thing for a blind woman to fly across the country and go into a random abandoned mansion alone following her gut that she has to be there to figure something out? From a narrative/character perspective, the game makes sense and is a lot of fun - and also occasionally pretty creepy. Full Review »

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. Perception tiene una mecánica muy especial que no es para todo el publico. La idea de ir a ciegas en un juego puede no ser la mejor para un videojuego, sin embargo, en Perception todo se basa en utilizar los sonidos para guiarte. Pero ten cuidado, si haces demasiado ruido algo terrible irá por ti.
    La historia del juego, los elementos de exploración y la búsqueda de elementos tanto principales como secundarios son los que le dan vida a este juego. Lamentablemente, el juego es corto y tiene poca re-jugabilidad por no variar su contenido. No obstante, el juego no es caro y puede ser una opción para momentos de espera a otro juego más ambicioso.
