Remember Me
Release Date: 3 June 2013
Strengths:
-Fairly good story and concept
-Unique design of “memory modification” levels

Limitations:
-Repetitive combat and very limited combos
-Mediocre graphics and closed box level design
-Can be hard if you don’t practice and remember certain game functions and combos
-Linear gameplay and unlocked combos reset after the game ends
-No multiplayer and alternate game modes other than one single player campaign

Conclusion:
The biggest strength of this game is its game concept. In the futuristic setting of the game, people can store their memories on servers and their memories could be modified or transferred to one another. You play as “Nilin” a memory hunter who has lost her memory and now assisted by an unknown entity called “Edge” to find the truth about herself and the struggle of some rebels against evil corporation who controls it all (Sounds familiar? Yeah, every game does need a complex plot and 1 vs all story!). The most interesting aspect of the game is the memory alteration levels in which you can dig into other person’s memory and change some aspects of it to suit your motives or in other words, let the person think in a particular way which is not true in reality. This brings out a dangerous aspect of this “Memory Business”. You can make a person shoot another person by altering his/her memory, or make someone guilty of something by changing his/her memory, or can even delete everything because it is now an accessible system thanks to the technology developed as showcased in the game (Remember “Total Recall” movie?). After going through its gameplay and story I’d say that this game is not entirely unique but has fragments taken from movies and other games. For example, for combat and combos it is similar to games like devil may cry, and jumping around ledges and camera angles exactly like “Prince of Persia: Warrior Within”, jumping over rooftops while being chased by authorities like in “Mirror’s Edge” etc. Levels are very linear, repetitive and flat. In each level you do a bit of fighting, a bit of jumping around, a bit of climbing over ledges and pipes, and very later in the game a couple of puzzles to solve, and occasional boss fights. Story is flat and I didn’t find it interesting and pretty much anticipated what would happen in the end (but I loved the robot toy called “Jax” lol). But the “memory alteration” part of of the game I’d give it 10/10 for its uniqueness as I have not seen any game having that. So for what I would recommend this game? Only for playing “memory alteration” levels and if you want to experience the story of the game. Combat is also fairly enjoyable once you get hold of the combos. But if you are not into the games that feature combo-based combat, zero help- if you forget certain game mechanics then stay away from it.
