It introduced some fairly unique and interesting features, but lacked in variety, as it was essentially a huge gathering quest. I found myself enjoying the first two chapters of the game immensely the first time around, which was definitely where a lot of my expectations and hope went.Ĭhapter 3 was where my disappointment began. It is definitely the game’s high-point, and I found myself replaying Chapter 1 a couple of times, as I found it interesting to go back and look at the details I found myself missing the first time around.Ĭhapter 2 is almost as good as the first, it builds upon the basic foundation that Chapter 1 laid down, as well as introduced some new game mechanics, character and plot-lines. It distils horror into the audience by building up tension and creating a mystery rarely seen in a game like this. There is a lot of quirkiness and some actually spooky scenes. You receive a letter from the owner, Joey Drew, inviting you back to the old workshop – and this is where the madness begins.

The story is fairly straightforward, you play as Henry Stein, a co-worker of Joey Drew Studios. It is a survival-horror game that focuses heavily on its story, and while I love a good story-based game, and was super pumped to experience Bendy’s, ultimately the game falls flat on its face and disappointed me to the point that I found myself feeling physically angry after playing it.īendy and the Ink Machine is made up of 5 separate chapters, each one advancing the story-line further and further. Bendy and the Ink Machine is an indie game I had been looking forward to for over a year now, and it is unfortunately not one of those games. It’s hard to pull off, but when done right, can create a memorable and adrenaline-pumping experience that usually sticks with me for a while.

Horror is one of the most fascinating game genres for me. By Ruairi O'Brien (Lucariocios) Bendy and the Ink Machine, Nintendo Switch, review, Rooster Teeth Games, TheMeatly Gamesīendy and the Ink Machine finally splats onto Switch, but does this creepy adventure live up to its hype?
