Strayed lights review
It’s the weekend again, and it’s another game to review. Strayed light is a story told in an abstract journey in a way and directed by guesswork to try and evolve and transcend.
The game is quite easily controlled and is beautifully integrated onto the xbox system and plays brilliantly without any problems.
You start off as a creature of light or element, born into the world where a storm is taking place when suddenly you start to evolve and separate into two parts, one evil and the other good.
After wandering around and getting my bearings and understanding the controls of your split personality, you start fighting the game mechanics and various mobs, learning how you parry and charge up your abilities and how to strike back.
Your main quest is to search different realms, looking to put them back together again. Each realm opens your story and the tale behind your existence, and no boss is the same as the last one you encountered, which is a nice trait.
The colours and the fluidity of the game is never boring and while your engrossed into the game play every boss you encounter feels slightly more challenging and with unique patterns which you somehow you have to learn to stay alive learning how the mobs move using various patterns while they attack you, I found this hard being old and have no coordination.
The realms you visit are visually breathtakingly and colourful and somehow feel like they’re alive, like you’re in a dream or a living environment. I feel like that last comment makes sense in my head, but belive me it just beautiful to look at, I found myself just in ore of looking at the backdrops and the visual landscapes you play through. I lost a lot of time with my jaw on the floor, just looking at everything.
