Review: Shipwreck Escape (Switch & Steam) - Defunct Games
55Defunct Games reviews the new adventure game Shipwreck Escape, available now on Switch and PC.
The luxury cruise liner you're on just crashed and is taking on water. What are you going to do? This is the instantly compelling concept at the center of Shipwreck Escape, a game that puts you in the shoes of a middle-aged croupier and a woman he befriends in the lower decks. By working together, the two will solve puzzles and (hopefully) escape the boat before it sinks. Despite a fantastic setup, this disaster game falls apart due to repetitive puzzles, terrible storytelling, trial-and-error gameplay and generic graphics. But even with its flaws, the novel conceit and Lost Vikings-style character switching helps Shipwreck Escape stay afloat.
