Fantastic news of something that couldn’t possibly go wrong: an inventor has created animatronic puppets and filled the city with them. Sadly, everything’s gone a bit Westworld, in that a fun premise takes itself way too seriously. Oh, and because the puppets turned homicidal in an event called the ‘Puppet Frenzy’ (stop giggling at the back) it’s up to Pinocchio and his lovely hair to engage in brutal hacky-slashy combat with his fellow puppets. Time for an original action-RPG, then, with enemies tucked craftily around corners, silent levels punctuated by epically-scored boss fights, and… hang on…
Round8 Studio hasn’t? You’re lucky we didn’t make you jump in an incinerator for bringing that back, puppet boy.
