Dec. 2024

Late Shift was the very first FMV game I ever played, and it completely hooked me on the genre. I even made videos trying to get that elusive "perfect" ending, which shows just how much it kept me engaged. The game itself is definitely on the good side of the scale, the story is gripping, the choices feel meaningful, and the multiple endings add great replay value. Plus, the production quality and acting are solid, making it feel like a proper movie where you control the narrative. It’s a great pick if you’re into interactive storytelling or just want a unique gaming experience.

A pretty solid FMV game, except that you can't skip scenes you've already seen. It's hard to want to play through seven times when you'll exhaust most of the content after two or three plays and all that's left are minor variations with slightly different endings. That said, my first two play-throughs were interesting and engaging, and the third was interesting in the second half once I got to actually new content. Some of the choices aren't really choices and the protagonist will just do what the game clearly wants him to do. I get that it's exorbitantly expensive to offer a lot of true variation for a game like this, but surely some better design choices could have made the player feel like they have more agency. But whatever, it's still overall a well-shot and well-told FMV story that's interesting and engaging to play, even if the plot is a bit contrived. I enjoyed playing it.

If you ever feel like punching your monitor, this game is perfect for you. There is no skip option so you have to listen to the same lines multiple times for perfect achievement. I am pretty mad right now and i hope you also buy this game and go through the same suffering like me.

July 2024

It’s an acceptable Full-Motion Video (FMV) game. The story is ok, I can tell that my first try I didn’t enjoy the end, so I tried the others to see. The acting is ok as well. This game does not have the skip option or to stop the auto-choice, which is a bit annoying. You need to have full attention if you want to try something different. I recommend get this on sale or on a bundle.

July 2024

I recommend buying this game on sale. Having said that the game deserves a mixed review as it has many issues but is good enough not to get a negative review. Let me tell you why: The Bad: 1. It has no storyboard. That means you have to replay the entire game just to get a ending thats a bit diffrent from most others. 2. There are 7 endings but there are only 3 that are not minor diffrences and even then only the conculsion is diffrent based on a few sometimes even just a single choice. 3. The story is very liniar. There are only a few events that can play diffrently based on your choices. Except a few events everything will bring you to the same point without actual impact on the story path. 4. The game is short. You can finish it in 1.5 h. 5. Film Quality is ok but not great. The good: The game is well acted. It feels real and while choices only matter slightly it at least gives you the illusion of choice. The story is gripping and suspenseful. If it had a storyboard and was cheaper i would recommend it. On a sale i would say go buy it regardless as it is a cool story.
