60 Second Review of…
Ico
Tom's review: This short delicate combo of sweet
and sinister is about holding hands with a girl and escaping from
a vast castle. For an entirely non-verbal game, Ico has a lot to
say: you don't need elaborate controls, sophisticated puzzles, detailed
combat, and fullblown backstories to suck players in. This is videogaming
at its most simple, elegant, and satisfying.
