    The Consequence continues the intriguing story that the Assignment introduced and manages to mix up the stealth gameplay a bit from The Assignment.

    Another generous helping of horror. Occasionally frustrating, but more often tense, inventive and satisfying. [July 2015, p.84]

    The Consequence continues on the path of the first opus, with a new way of playing. The balance between infiltration phases and action is better here. But there are also the same problems with A.I.

    The Consequence is entertaining. It’s not an introspective, philosophical mindbender; it’s campy fun. It has its flaws, but in a game where Claude Debussy’s “Claire De Lune” is mixed with Inception, buckets of blood, and a Victorian loveseat/black cat combo that acts as your save point, I can’t help but enjoy it.

    The gorgeous environments and ridiculous boss battles in The Consequence are among the best in the series, but an overabundance of exposition interrupts its flow too frequently.
