THE CRUNCH
Control: Resonant lets players manipulate gravity to flip, twist and fly through a twisted New York City that looks ripped from Inception. The review describes the game as a coherent experience that blends the meta storytelling of House of Leaves with the inventive platforming of Super Mario Galaxy. This latest release from developer Remedy is praised for making games like nobody else.
The review highlights that while many games offer open worlds, few feel as oddly exhilarating as the gravity manipulation in Control: Resonant. The game's settings are described as looking ripped out of Inception, creating a visually distinct atmosphere. The combination of meta storytelling and platforming is noted as a successful experiment that defines Remedy's unique approach to game design.
