Synopsis:
-NORCO is a 2-D Point-n-click adventure game. You play as Kay, a young woman who returns home to the small town of Norco, Louisiana, to find her missing brother. You also play as her mom, Christine, in small flashbacks that help fill in bits of the story.
-You bond with a cyborg named Million, as well as several other friends that help you along your journey.
-There are several elements to the game, including different modes of fast travel, and like any good PNC game, dialogue to progress the story only appears when all prerequisites are met.
Pros:
-The story is good. This is one of the better PNC adventure games I’ve played. And, it’s short enough that you can finish it in an afternoon, with a guide.
-There are some achievements that made me laugh including Felicette, and Cats and Dogs. If you know, you know.
Cons:
-There’s a lot going on here. Seems like there were several elements of point-and-click games just kind of mish-mashed together. There didn't seem to be a ton of consistency in gameplay, but then again, I was flying through it.
Analysis:
-Storyline is Dynamic
-Gameplay is Ok
-Mechanics are Good
-Graphics are dark
-It isn’t too difficult
Is it worth it?
-Is the game worth the price? I probably wouldn’t buy this title, but if you like PNC games, its worth $15
-Is the game on game pass? Yes
-Is the grind worth the gamerscore? Yes
-Easy completion? Somewhat
-Would I play this game if it had no achievements? Possibly.
