Down in Bermuda - Switch (2.5hrs) Surprisingly effective mix of ('My First') The Witness, Zack & Wiki, The Almost Gone and Hidden Folks that's recently sucked up the ignominy of a super budget price. I already half fancied this after the original trailer and banked it for a rainy day when the price plummeted to £1.79. The rainy day was yesterday, and despite some misgivings regarding the docked controls (d-pad nevery feels intuitive for panning the view, the way the view rotates in a wide sweep feels wrong) it was a definite goodtime. The puzzles often involve a fairly basic chain of switches and levers and there's a hide 'n seek item quest on each stage, but nothing outstays its welcome, it all just about makes sense (although admittedly I beat the final set of puzzles by randomly rotating stuff for a while) and the credits roll just as enough's enough. Would definitely recommend at its occasional low sale price, but the OG £19.99 RRP is some bullshit. [7]

Tilly wasn't allowed to play this really (the wife's decision, was the knives that did it). I tried to get her to play SOR2 instead (not officially banned), but she was complaining too much by the end of the second stage. One pleading phonecall was all it took in the end, and this became our second clear of the caravan trip. We played a chunk of it before Mrs Moot noped it but I didn't realise she's been itching to get back to it since. You can change outfits/hair colour now, so she played as Yvette Fielding and I hopped between the rest from stage to stage.
I think this is the 4th time I've had this in one of these threads. It's got to be a [10] really; it's markedly superior to the next best thing in the genre (which is probably Mother Russia Bleeds imho), and I fucking love the genre. With the dlc it's an incredible package and far, far better than I dared to hope it would be when they first announced it. And believe me, I had high hopes. A masterpiece. You wouldn't be a loony to describe it as the best Sega game of all time.
