I'm going to be crucified for this but Inscryption is way overhyped. The card game is good, until you realise that it's completely unbalanced and really easy to cheese your way through. The 2D section is a chore, introducing new mechanics that it barely explains, although it's cool in concept.The final part is okay, but nothing groundbreaking either.

However, the story is a pretty great love letter to gaming culture. Playing through a creepypasta is such a cool idea I can't believe it hadn't been done before, and it's really well executed here. However, this game lives thanks to it's twists and turns, and once that is gone, I'm pretty sure repeat playthroughs aren't as enjoyable and show the cracks in the gameplay's proverbial armour. This is not a bad game, far from it, it's good, original, interesting amongst many other things, but it's far from being the masterpiece some present it as.
