    Defunct isn’t a game that must be played, and the damn camera and poor audio don’t ever breed much confidence. But underneath the issues is a fun little title that is just begging to get out.

The gameplay in the game shines through a lot of the time and that’s mainly down to them giving you a lot of freedom to use speed and exploration at the same time. Thankfully the controls hold up really well throughout the game which is definitely important because the game can become very difficult and the worst thing is that the difficulty curve seems to come out of nowhere. My favourite thing about the game is the level design. The reason I say level design is because you can tell a lot of thought and effort went into each level and I loved that they allow you to complete a level using multiple routes. This freedom though can cause you a few problems at times because you do have to backtrack a lot and when doing this you can get lost, so some frustration will be present at times. Thankfully there was no frustration when it came to the puzzles and in my opinion the puzzles were designed really well and did a great job of adding something different to the gameplay. If you are looking for a game with tons of content then you won’t find it here and I must admit that I was a little disappointed by how short the game was. The presentation side of the game is brilliant in my opinion. The reason I think it’s brilliant is because they’ve done a great job of making the visuals and sound design look and sound fun and they’ve also made it accessible to all gamers, which is great. At the end of the day I didn’t think I would enjoy Defunct as much as I did and I love it when a game surprises me. Don’t get me wrong this game is far from being perfect and the niggling problems can be a nuisance at times, but you can look past these problems because it gets a number of things right and because of that it gets a thumbs up from me.… Full Review »
