The Lie of the Loop: A Deathloop Review
7In Deathloop, you play as a Colt Vahn. A man trapped inside a time loop on some Bioshock flavored Island called Black Reef. After every night or death, Colt wakes up on the beach of the previous morning. The only way to break to loop is to find a way to kill 8 visionaries in one day without dying.

**Pros**
Difficulty Settings present
The Invasion System is thrilling
There's plenty to explore in Blackreef
You can get creative with your own personal playstyle
Building an arsenal of powers, weapons, and upgrades to loop with you is satisfying
**Cons**
The time loop is largely a plot device, it's potential is squandered when it comes to gameplay
There is a single solution to dispatching all 8 visionaries that the game explicitly tells you how to perform as part of the story
The AI is completely brain dead
As the player base shrinks and the Invasion system ceases to exist, the game will become much less interesting
