Dead Space: Ignition

Dead Space: Ignition should not exist. The first misstep in the series, this 'game' (it barely qualifies) is a comic-style puzzler with unnecessary branching story paths intended to pad an otherwise short experience. A lazy story crashes into a lazy cast and ends up in a heap of lazy gameplay and graphics. If I could attribute any positives, the mind-numbing puzzles passed the time for a bit, but the entire experience highlights how rarely going outside the box for an established series works.

Do yourself a favour and just skip (fans of the series are gonna be curious regardless, but this is not an experience - it's a quick buck).
