Reviews of Bloober Team Games
Hauer you doin'?
A dystopian cyberpunk future bombarded with rain? Check. Working-class people turning to body augmentations and drugs? Check. Rutger Hauer? Also check. Yeah, so far, so Blade Runner. Observer: System Redux isn’t shy about its influences, nor should it be, as this short-but-sweet homage to sci-fi murder mystery films delivers a...
Mini Review Layers Of Fear: Final Masterpiece Edition (Switch 2) - Handsome But Humdrum Horror
Tormented souls
Switch owners already have access to Layers of Fear: Legacy and its sequel, but Bloober Team is back with a new port for Switch 2. Utilising Unreal Engine 5 to achieve some truly impressive visuals, Layers of Fear: The Final Masterpiece Edition is neither a sequel nor a remake, but rather the definitive vision of the series so far,...
Review Cronos: The New Dawn (Switch 2) - Strong Story Elevates Otherwise Safe Survival Horror
Horror homage
In the run-up to the launch of Bloober Team’s new IP, Cronos: The New Dawn, chances are you saw one or two (or ten) comparisons to EA’s Dead Space series.

However, for every riveting, Rutger Hauer-flavoured cyberpunk horror...
The Blair Switch Project

An independent, low budget hit that made mega-profits at the box office, it was the first truly successful "found footage" movie (although not "the" first) as well as the first to cleverly employ the internet in a viral marketing campaign...
Tears in game
Here at NL Towers, we’re partial to a bit of Blade Runner. We love the original 1982 film, in all its guises, and we adore the 2017 sequel. Oh yes, we can recite the C-beams speech verbatim, and more besides. However, we must concede that we probably don’t like Blade Runner quite as much as Bloober Team does. References aren’t...
