The old Little Nightmares team is back with Reanimal, but it isn’t the game I wanted

Reanimal is a visually stunning game with a two-player co-op experience that feels cumbersome and punishing. The game features vibrant aesthetics and intriguing boss designs but suffers from narrative confusion. Players embark on a journey to rescue a sibling from an island, navigating through various chapters that include sewers, a train graveyard, a surreal forest, and a city. The game’s tone is bleak, often evoking sorrow rather than fear, and the gameplay includes straightforward puzzles and inconsistent mechanics. While it attempts to create a sense of scale, the abundance of weapons diminishes the sense of danger. Despite its artistic qualities, Reanimal struggles with narrative clarity compared to Tarsier's previous title, Little Nightmares.

As Anthem breathes its last, I still find myself mourning just how close it came to being the BioWare game of my dreams

The BioWare Anthem servers will shut down on January 12. Anthem was launched nearly seven years ago but never fully realized its potential. Despite initial excitement and captivating gameplay mechanics, the game suffered from a lack of mission variety, limited equipment options, and slow narrative pacing. BioWare announced in February 2020 that it would halt seasonal updates to focus on a "substantial reinvention," but a year later confirmed that Anthem was effectively dead. The game is remembered for its promise and the nostalgic experiences it offered to players.
