Despite these setbacks, Contrast crafts an amazing world and continuously invents clever new ways for you to interact with it. The story is fantastic, bolstered by strong voice performances and a jazzy soundtrack that nails the mood. Few games can consistently grab your attention and wow you with each passing moment like Contrast can.
I have played the game on game pass and it's the most unique game I've ever played. The story is amazing and the graphics is artistic. yes it is short but that keeps it from getting boring.I absolutely recommend it if you can play it on game pass for free. The puzzles are just amazing.
Game play is brilliant, inspiring I have never thought that shadows can be used like this puzzles are really good and the game story as the story progress secrets reveal this is thrilling.
A description of the gameplay, the setting, and the story all seem great in theory, but my short time with Contrast left me with more disappointment than satisfaction, particularly on the gameplay side of things.
Contrast is a mess. It’s ugly, tiresome, insipid and occasionally insulting. It aspires to be like other, better games, and wears that on its sleeve, but has nothing worthwhile to call its own.
I unique game with really great puzzles and a new and interesting style of game play. It's nice to have a game you can take your time with and not have to play at a blistering speed of impossible hand/eye coordination talents. My entire family has really enjoyed playing this game.
A puzzle-platformer Contrast is a rather ugly looking game with slightly fiddly controls but the shadow based puzzles are very clever at times (and the logic behind them always consistent) and it is able to tell an affecting story in just 3-4 hours of gameplay without resorting to long cut scenes. It’s far from perfect but, now that all the bugs and glitches have been patched out, it’s worth playing if you can find it relatively cheap.
The visuals in this game are gorgeous. I love the setting. I love the idea! Being an imaginary friend. I thought Dawn was a great character and that little girl was very annoying. Sometimes the game could be a bit buggy but no real dramas with anything. It was fun figuring out the puzzles but what I really REALLY wanted from this game was the opportunity to explore more. If this game was a huge open world with heaps of collectables I would have loved it way more. But anyway. Great game! Not very long but great idea. While not everyone enjoyed this I would say get it if it was on sale! I paid full price for it and will play it through a second time to collect everything and get all the trophies. :)
This game is not good. Wonky controls. Ugly visuals. Puzzles that aren't even very interesting. Lots of just walking around trying to figure out what to do next. Boring.
This game had so much potential. It had a brilliant gameplay mechanic and a really nice art style. However it is let down because of the glitchy mess that it is. Many of the puzzles in this game don't even work as intended because the physics in this game are so glitchy! There's also some kinda bad level design in some places and I feel like the shadow gameplay and controls kinda feel stiff and awkward. Although this game has a beautiful art style I feel like this game is having an identity crisis. Does it want to be an old French movie or an old american noire style movie? I'm not too sure and I think these styles merge in a strange way and it's kinda corny. Also this game isn't really graphically impressive either, which isn't a bad thing, but kinda ****. Also I won't spoil the story but you'll defiantly be disappointed with the ending and for a game that costs £12 in the UK you won't be spending your money's worth, luckily I had PS+, as the you could probably beat this game in 40 minutes.
