If that wolf spots you though, Penumbra: Overture’s greatest faults become all too apparent. Not only is the game’s combat woefully bad, the same swipe-your-mouse system being a massive hindrance to actually hitting anything, but the AI is basic, predictable and irritating, turning that feeling of fear into a feeling of wanting to avoid fighting because it’s so awful.
Having come from an excellent little freeware game of the same name, we really wanted Penumbra: Overture to be better than this. That said, avoid combat and it remains an extremely smart adventure game with a lot to offer.
