"Exact revenge on those who experimented on you in tense sci-fi thriller Past Cure, using stealth, fists and telepathic skills to uncover the secrets behind your imprisonment."
A sci-fi third-person shooter that combines genres and neat ideas without any of the depth.
Past Cure is a bad game. It's bad bad. But it's also the best kind of bad game, in that it's not for a lack of effort or that the team were bereft of ideas that the finished product doesn't come together. If anything, the game is too ambitious, with too many ideas, and it inevitably crumbles under the weight of numerous poorly implemented gameplay styles and a total lack of a cohesive identity. It's a bit like when your mum tries making Baked Alaska for the first time – sure, the end result is a sloppy mess, but you've got to applaud the audacity to try it in the first place.
