Quantum Conundrum


Hi guys and welcome to my blog
In this post I will be talking to you about the game Quantum Conundrum. Lets start with the premise of the whole game. You are a young boy who has been sent to your grandfathers house to stay for a while. When you get there you are not greeted with your grandfather but instead with deathly silence. Then your grandfather talks into the intercom saying that the house has shut down and that you will have to go through the house and turn the power generators back on. You may have heard that the game is made by Kim Swift the main woman behind Portal. This game will be living in the shadow of the great Portal games which is a shame because it is hard to live up to such a good game. One of the draws of Portal 2 was the brilliant communication between the cast that is very lacking in Quantum. The grandfather will tell you some stuff over the intercom which is usually annoying. The gameplay is good with some puzzles taking some time to work out. The puzzles made even worse when it is you being stupid that is holding you back. Right onto the score:
Gameplay:The gameplay is good but not ground breaking, some nice puzzles in there also.                     7/10
Sound: It is first person so no lip syncing, other general sounds don't really add to the atmosphere.         7/10
Length: I will take you about 10 hours to complete which isn't bad for a PSN game.                              8/10
Multiplayer:N/A
Graphics: A nice slightly cartoon style to the game, no glitches experienced.                                           9/10
So that gives us a total of 7/10, a good game but with some draw backs.
Thats if for now, check back soon for a review of Retro/Grade and Just Cause 2.
