Tron: Identity Reviews

Unfortunately, as a Tron fan, I cannot recommend this game. For the price, there are plenty of better games you could get, with much more replay value. This is a visual novel style game, and yet, I had some weird lag problems. I have a decent PC, and haven't had issues with other games, so this must be related to the game itself. As a fan of games with a strong narrative focus, I felt very frustrated with how the game handled its story. The core of the story is fine, I suppose, but because of the several branching choices, there were a few times toward the end of the game where characters knew information that I did not tell them, and there was no way they could have known. This really frustrated me, as it lessened the impact of my choices. If you're also a huge fan of Tron: Legacy or Tron: Uprising, you will be disappointed to find out that this story does not take place in the same Grid as those stories. I understand why the creative team made this decision, but it makes me care less about the world of the story, especially because the player gets to see so little of it. I don't really understand who this game is for, and how it has such a high score. It does not succeed as a detective game, as a naritive game, or as a Tron game. I'd rate this game 2/5.

Would i recommend this game to a Tron fan? As much as i want to, NO. SO definitely wouldn't recommend for people who aren't Tron fans. The 'game' part of it is far too repetitive, put that with dialogue and tutorials that you can't skip you have a recipe for a game that gets completely stale at the end of your first play through - which would be fine if all the story lines and character interaction were good and well thought out - which I am sorry , they just aren't. The annoying thing is the achievement actively encourage multiple play-throughs. The art style, music and sounds are cool but apart from that everything else is disappointing.
