A Plague Tale: Innocence delivers so many wonderful attributes to make this a near-perfect game.
A linear adventure through medieval France A Plague Tale: Innocence will satisfy those who fancy a singleplayer game with an emphasis on story. In roughly twelve hours, you'll enjoy a captivating atmosphere, excellent dubbing and hilarious stealth. Minuses in the form of flaws in the graphics and occasionally simple gameplay don't detract much from the overall impression of the game. This straightforward adventure comes on the heels of titles with a huge open world and proves that even linear games can draw you in and amaze you.
A Plague Tale: Innocence – Cloud Version is an incredibly well-written, well-designed immersive game that blends stealth, survival and puzzles in a rich historical setting with an intense story of family, war and magic.
A Plague Tale: Innocence sees you playing as Amicia running through the plagued streets of France with your brother Hugo. Set in the 1300’s, you’re running from soldiers of the inquisition and the terrifying hordes of rats that are ravaging the streets. There are a few different themes that run throughout: at the forefront of the story you’re surrounded by death and decay which is something you will quickly get used to seeing.
It kept me from enjoying the game that much sooner. Chalk it up to impatience but if you have another way to try this game, you should. It's worth the time; I'm just not sure if it's worth the Switch edition.
