Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice

While the main appeal of Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice,  – Psychosis and mental instability – was not for me there is still plenty of fun to be had with the game.

Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is a formidable concoction of beauty and psychological horror that’s often marred with a frequent claustrophobic sense of frustration. The rather cumbersome puzzle feature set in place would be something that I would usually consider as a weak link within a cast iron chain. Yet, to the developer’s credit, they have completely enforced exactly what they set out to do, sending my mind into a kaleidoscope of emotions that metaphorically ride across the five stages of grief.
