Night Watch


This Russian thriller adaptation gets lost in translation

The Night Watch movie was made by people who love Lukyaninko's literature. The Night Watch game was made by people who love, well... something else. If you appreciated the movie or are aching for more Silent Storm turn-based action, then this game could hit the mark provided you are very forgiving of the disappointing audio, turgid dialog and tired visuals.

If you are merely a turn-based strategy fan and haven't played Silent Storm yet, you are better off skipping the Gloom altogether and rescuing SS from the bargain bin for $9.99.

You'll love

You'll hate
