The Secret of Retropolis
Posted: 24 Oct 2021, 12:33
"We're blowing the lid off this short but highly entertaining VR-exclusive cartoon film noir adventure in a city of robots."
The Good:
Colourful graphics and cut scenes pack a whole lot of style
Excellent voice acting, especially for the heroine
Jazzy soundtrack sets the mood nicely throughout
Characters fit the genre perfectly, with a plot and gameplay to match
The Bad:
VR potential not fully exploited
Extremely short play time at less than an hour
Our Verdict:
Though the fun is over far too soon, VR adventure gamers owe it to themselves to play The Secret of Retropolis as it perfectly captures the atmosphere of film noir in an unexpectedly comedic all-robot futuristic setting.
