Fable The Journey
SCORE: 49
Fable The Journey is a wagon trail game
set in the Fable universe. Think of Fable The Journey like this - Oregon
Trail if it were set in medieval times. Add in magic, monsters, fortune
tellers, seers, and more. Players sit on their couch or chair to play
Fable The Journey with the Kinect sensor.
Family Friendly Gaming found bad language, violence, blood, enticement
to lust, and magic in Fable The Journey. Bad attitudes go along with
some of the bad language. The voice acting is okay, and relays the
deceit in certain characters.
The controls are one of the biggest problems in Fable The Journey. With
all of the moral and ethical issues Fable The Journey could have been an
adult only game. The bad controls, as well as loading screen glitches is
what buries this home console game. Sitting there flailing our arms
around is boring.
The wagon trail aspect of Fable The Journey increases the boredom
levels. Fable The Journey tries to throw things at the player to keep
them engaged. Which would have been okay if the controls were not so
messed up. The Kinect sensor does not recognize commands, and expects a
certain exact sitting position to interact. Which means Fable The
Journey is one of the most uncomfortable games on the Xbox 360.
The massive enemy that eats up everything in its path is one of the most
dominate and scary enemies this reviewer has faced in some time. Fable
The Journey can get the blood pumping during some of the chase scenes.
The magical attacks in Fable The Journey feel borderline occultic. What
is sad is Fable The Journey forces players into using it. The enemies
are relentless in Fable The Journey. The difficulty level of Fable The
Journey is high, and thanks to the control issues even higher. Pass on
Fable The Journey.
