Solo
SCORE: 55
Have you heard about Solo on the Personal
Computer (PC)? If not you are going to hear all about it now. Solo is
one of the strangest video games I have ever played. Solo is described
by Team Gotham as an introspective puzzler. In other words one of those
paintings at the museum you are supposed to stare and get thoughts. If I
want to get thoughts I will meditate on the Holy Bible and talk to God.
Solo has peaceful music in it. If you like that kind of music then you
will enjoy that part of Solo. I however like music that will keep me
awake. Especially a game like Solo where this is little to no direction.
Those kinds of games make me sleepy. Add the music and then I can be
taking a nap. Which is not conducive to any kind of introspective
behavior. Maybe you are different from me.
The most offensive and controversial portion of Solo is it supports
non-binary genders. Solo supports sexual deviancy. I know many families
that will run far away from Solo because of that alone. Solo can be
described as an attack on traditional Biblical marriage. Solo wants you
to build relationships with whomever you decide to pursue. The weird
light house really pushed that on me.
There are a dizzying amount of controls in Solo. Which would not be a
problem if they worked right. The camera is annoying, aggravating,
confusing, and strange. I guess the poor camera fits the rest of this
game. Why am I so down on the camera in Solo? It is on this gyroscope
that sent me into rage quitting on more than one occurrence. I would
play a fighter jet game if I wanted down to become up. Solo is about as
backwards as Holly Weird.
The Wind Waker like graphics in Solo look nice. The lack of custom
controls hurts this downloadable only odd game. The controller support
is nice. Solo could port over to the consoles and offend more gamers
than it will on the PC. The main aspect of Solo is answering questions
to the highly offensive lighthouse. I wish Solo had more family friendly
content. I wish I could give it a better report. Sadly the developers
knew what they were doing.
