Complete playthough with 100% of achievements unlocked. Children of Silentown is a decent but unexceptional point-and-click 'adventure', with an enjoyably spooky theme. The puzzles are for the most part fairly logical, though with occasional frustrating 'pixel-hints' required across a few locations. A song mechanic used to unlock different interactions with characters is interesting, if not as well-developed as it could have been. Overall, the game is worth a play for fans of the genre, but it isn't going to be memorable beyond that.
With FFVII Rebirth now with us, it's finally time to catch up on this expansion to its predecessor. At only two chapters in length, Episode INTERmission's scope for detailed story development is clearly limited, but this DLC proves a fun introduction to Yuffie. While I've got a lot of work to master the new combat mechanics that her introduction brings, I look forward to seeing how those develop further in the sequel, as well of course how her part in the core game's events plays out!
Completed with platinum trophy earned. Assassin's Creed: Mirage is a very solid game in the more traditional format of the series. It doesn't do anything revolutionary, but it doesn't need to, with interesting stealth scenarios and likeable characters playing out a well-written story. The 'investigations' system that replaces a more typical linear mission structure helps to add some further interest, though combat is a bit of a lowlight, with a new stamina-based system that proves more frustrating than it really ought to.
