Have you ever wondered why, individually good and peace-loving citizens, merging into society, allow the coming to power of forces that have diametrically opposed their principles and goals? "Norman's Great Illusion" is our attempt to talk about this phenomenon.

    Unfortunately, the gameplay risks overshadowing the entire thing. I’d wager that most people will likely never see more than one or two of those seven endings. Forget leaving with a lasting message about the dangers of capitalism – the only thing you’re likely to remember about Norman’s Great Illusion on Xbox One is how utterly tedious those minigames were.

    I feel like Norman's Great Illusion is a good idea for a game - an exploration of capitalism through the guise of a narrative adventure (much like Papers, Please did for communism), but unlike the title it's so heavily inspired by it doesn't really understand that putting clever and enjoyable gameplay ideas at the forefront is key.
