Review Shadowgate (Switch) - A Faithful And Tricky Remake Most Suited To Retro Fans
Warlock and key
A good 30 years ago, first-person point and click games were a very different beast. These progenitors were brutal and merciless not just in their difficulty, but how they often forced you to study every room to pick out hard-to-miss items while juggling timed puzzles that would sooner kill you than let you waste time dithering on...

Before you read the rest of this review, know that we didn't expect this to be much of a game, per se. Topoloco markets...
