    This is possibly one of the most deeply emotional gaming experiences out there and boasts an art style that works perfectly for a visual novel. As well as serving up a unique game mechanic this is an inexpensive title that could easily go unnoticed in this world of AAA behemoths, but hopefully, it will get the attention that it rightly deserves. Delivering a truly different gaming experience, fans of the genre are sure to appreciate what is on offer here. After all, any game with a pumping theme tune in the style of the soundtrack to Road 96, which shouts out the classic French indie game “Night Call” has to be worth anybody’s time. It is strangely cathartic to lead a broken character through one of her darkest days and succeed in leading her out into the sunshine with the hope of a better life going forwards.

    The Wreck was such a labour for us to wade through. It’s too structured and symmetrical, making it feel less like a story and more like a syllabus of homework tasks.
