It’s already two years since first Project Warlock’s reviews hit. There’s been lots and lots of positive feedback, some definitely less than that and a bit of some truly bizarre quotes between Steam, various gaming websites, blogs and channels.
Of all those accompanying the recent console launch the one that sticks to mind is GameSpew’s: “Project Warlock does a poo on your doorstep, kicks your cat, then invites itself in to bake you a lovely cake.”
But there’s another piece – from EGMNOW’s Mollie L. Patterson - that gave Project Warlock an 5/5. Which, when sucked into one end of the thirsty Metacritic tube spits out the respectable 100/100.
Ok. We do realise that the all the review scores are superficial. And review themselves totally subjective. Sometimes startingly scathing. Sometimes surprisingly sympathetic.
And it’s very difficult to – when faced with the elusive perfect score – refrain from saying: “look guys and girls - this reviewer gets it”.
So that's not what this is about. But it just feels very fitting that a game built on the legacy of the old-school classic games gets a perfect score from a magazine that’s built on the legacy of the old-school classic game mag.
So - irregardless if this is your first visit to Project Warlock's steampage or you're no stranger to these parts - I encourage you to give Mollie’s excellent review a read. With black letters written against a white background and no video.
You know: old-school like.
