Silicon Valley. Nintendo 64

3rd Person. Puzzle Game.

I'm going to give you a quick overview on this one because frankly, it's mental. You are a robot involved in a spaceship crash and your body gets destroyed. The microchip with your brain in it survives and is able to possess the robotic animal inhabitants of the space station you crashed into. Whilst your human partner stays in the ship you must solve puzzles to find replacement parts for the downed ship.

The Good.

It's bonkers so you'll have a good laugh playing it. It's very original, each animal has different abilities so it's really good fun just to find out what each does and just mess about.

The puzzles are very weird and definitely not repetitive or ones that you will have encountered before. Which is always good.

The Bad.

It makes no sense. None at all. Took me a while to realise what was going on to be honest.

Sometimes the puzzles are too hard. I had to look up the solutions to a few which weren't anything close to what I'd been doing.

Rating.

If it's cheap, buy it, but it's definitely a connoisseurs game. It's for the generation that loved nintendo, games that made no sense and you couldn't complete.
