    I’ve had the pleasure of reviewing some great games this year, and I’ve played dozens of other releases, but right now Unsighted might be my favorite game I’ve played in 2021. It’s truly a love letter to Metroidvanias, Zelda games, and action-adventure/RPGs. Studio Pixel Punk went above and beyond packing the game with interesting and unique content, taking design elements that work from classic games, and combining them with their own ideas. They also went out of their way to accommodate all sorts of players, by implementing multiple difficulty levels, assists, and additional gameplay modes. This game is a steal at $20 and for those of you with a Game Pass subscription, you’d be committing a crime by not trying it out.

    UNSIGHTED is a great game to play, especially when you consider the co-op mode, the Boss Rush mode and the Dungeon Raid you can take part in, and further to that, the amount of replayability based on choices you make is very good indeed. It’s only the slight imprecision in the combat that stops UNSIGHTED from getting a full score, and I can honestly recommend this to everyone.

    Whether you’re looking for a great adventure or a devastating one, Unsighted is absolutely both and then some.

    UNSIGHTED does a lot of things and it does them extremely well. So, if you enjoy the classic Zelda formula, Metroidvania exploration, twin-stick shooting, and reaction-based combat then you'll love your time with this gem of an indie.

    It's an engrossing twist on a set of systems that, while familiar, are sharply honed to create an engaging combat system and rewarding puzzles, making Unsighted one of this year's best-kept secrets.

    Don't trust any review giving this game a lower score. This game is so well thought out that it rivals the best in the genre. Incredible levelDon't trust any review giving this game a lower score. This game is so well thought out that it rivals the best in the genre. Incredible level design, fun gameplay mechanics that never get old, greatly find tuned difficulty with very rewarding encounters and great story pacing. I only knock one point because you can't remap the controller button layout which is a bit awkward at first. This is a must play for anybody.… Expand

    I found myself really disappointed by this game. The game design and gameplay by themselves are solid. However, there are some serious issuesI found myself really disappointed by this game. The game design and gameplay by themselves are solid. However, there are some serious issues on Xbox regarding lost saves when playing couch co-op. Multiple times we lost hours of progress for no apparent reason. Half the time the wrong controller worked for the profile it was assigned to. Additionally, achievements would only pop for one profile and not the other. We were so frustrated by this we gave up despite enjoying the base game.
    When we look online for solutions we see the developer noting another studio worked on the Xbox port. We'll, maybe don't trust them next time around.    … Expand
