    Given how much repetition is in the game, one would think it was much longer than its six to eight hour length. The lack of any kind of multiplayer hurts it further. And the final stake to the heart is the appallingly abrupt and inconclusive ending.

    Everything it tries to do, it fails—from the beginning to the abrupt and anti-climactic ending.

    Jericho is a mess of a shooter with nonexistant A.I., frustrating timed events, vague puzzles, and PS1-style load times. [Dec 2007, p.107]

    The action and violence are satisfying enough to make the game marginally recommendable, but only barely. Add in the complete lack of any multiplayer options, a terrible ending, and Clive Barker’s Jericho feels like a game where the good parts are overwhelmed by the shortcomings.

    Also worthy of note: the stupid, unforgiving, scripted button-tapping events (think God of War, only terrible). The only reason these do not throw me into a fit of vein-bursting rage is that you can retry them infinitely.

    It was... fine. The gameplay was repetitive and boring, and it hadnt any kind of progression system. But the visuals were outstanding.

The quick time event is gamer just one kind of thing that you want to avoid at all cost in video games Lucky you don't get sent back too long So it's not that bad.
    I completed the game on hard difficulty with mint that some of enemies could kill me in one hit it was satisfying it, Got me to think about which character. I was playing .
    The graphic artists disgusting in a good way, I enjoyed the graphic design very much accepted I think game was way too f****** Brown for my liking. It's insane. How brown it is most of the parts of the game.
    I was happy to find out that is game only took me 5 hours. It was one of those realisations where a game is just about long enough to not be completed tedious and have a bit of fun in but I can only recommend this if you have a really big fascination for bad games.    … Full Review »

I didn't understand the ending but after several years I understood it and that's when it became my favorite game.… Full Review »
