Blacksad: Under the Skin

Blacksad is a charming mess and I recommend it only on sale and only to the fans of the graphic novels. Sorry, but I can't in good heart recommend a game that's so broken. It needed more time in the oven because it plays like an early access title, with the worst offence being that Blacksad himself controls like crap. For most of the time it felt like I was controlling a tank...

That being said, what Blacksad does best is being honestly a pretty good adaptation of the source material. If the plot wasn't as interesting as it is, I'd have dropped the game after two hours. But good plot, doesn't equal good gameplay and at best, Blacksad could have been something close to The Wolf Among Us, but many times most of your choices doesn't seem to matter. It's just there to waste your time and result at a game over screen. What I liked best was all the references and easter eggs from the comics, it screamed to me that the games was made by fans, but unfortunately as a game is messy.

Also, great soundtrack.
