I Am Alive User Review

Entropy13

Could have been great, but failed to live up to the idea in so many ways.

Difficulty:
Just Right
Time Spent:
10 to 20 Hours
The Bottom Line:
"Total letdown"
The concept and the graphics are great, but the combat system is far to simplified and does the game a great disservice. Your limited number of action you can perform in combat just creates to many issues to be ignored. The fact that you can only kick an enemy at the edge of a cliff instead of anytime your holding him at gun point just leaves me confused. The level design is good except I felt like a rat in a maze with randomly blocked exits that based on previous experience should most assuredly have been opened. I like the simple inventory system which gives you that post-apocalyptic quality. The ending left it open for a sequel, which if it does happen, will be improved upon greatly. I had high hopes for the game but it just failed to deliver on so many fronts, especially the combat which could have easily been much better.
