Lost Brothers

[i]This is the [b]23rd[/b] review of the Steam Redlight series, a series where I purposely seek out negatively or controversially rated games on Steam to see if they're as bad as the Internet says they are. It's accompanied by a video review that can be found [b][url=https://youtu.be/8W8VDtdbij8]here[/url][/b].[/i] [b]In summary, I cannot recommend this game[/b], the graphics have a plethora of trivial complications in addition to the overall lack of polish this game has. In addition, my controller wouldn’t cooperate with the game even though there’s full controller support. The game does have some translation issues, but I’m willing to overlook those, but not the fact that there’s parts of the game that are untranslated at all. Lastly, there [i]appears[/i] to be a bug that’s preventing me from completing the game. [h2]Introduction[/h2] In Lost Brothers, you play as John, a member of a family who traditionally goes hiking as a way to spend time with one another. During a hike that John and his brother, Sam, go out for -- Sam goes missing and is never heard from again. Fast forward ten years, John goes out for a trip in the same area and discovers an abandoned radio near his campsi…

This game has a lot of very negative reviews and having played through it I understand why. There are a lot of flaws to the game that if fixed could really polish this short walking sim experience. The dialogue could use some proof reading, the cave graphics could use attention, and voice acting (even subpar voice acting) would take this game to the next level. As is I would not be able to recommend this game at its full price. If you can get it at a huge discount the story is interesting enough to justify the hour of playtime that you get from the game. It is also a decent game for achievement hunting, the achievements are simple to get and I can all be gotten in one play through. Overall the game is rough around the edges and definitely feels like someones college project but I think it gets more negative reviews than it deserves for what it is.

short walking simulator that tells an odd story about getting lost in a mysterious forest/cave, would probably recommend on sale as it was pretty short so not worth its current price, but I still had fun and enjoyed it.

I couldn't stomach more than 10 minutes. Needs a lot of work to be considered a "finished game" very buggy and full of incoherent translations and some parts that weren't translated at all. While I did enjoy the design of the game the lack of any voice actors makes the atmosphere feel very unwelcoming.

Pretty bad walking sim.

This game is NOT terrible. The gameplay is all fine, and the story isn't bad, but the translation is awful. And it occasionally attributes lines of dialogue to the wrong speaker, which is confusing. If the dialogue weren't a disaster, this could be a decent little walking simulator.
