The Messenger (Xbox One)

Another retro side scrolling adventure, let's be honest, this is a Ninja Gaiden clone.  I was really enjoying my time with this game, specifically part one.  By the time I got to part two, the game shifted from a traditional side scrolling point a to point b action platformer to a metroidvania complete with back tracking which, for me, is an instant turn off.  I then quit playing.  The game is good, I just wish it wouldn't have changed genre's or I would have seen it through.  If metroidvania's are your thing, by all means, play this game.  If you hate traversing levels trying to figure out where to go and what to do next, skip this one.  Pass.
