Description

More than 150 years in the future, the world has transformed into an unrecognizable state where all that remains are a dwindling human population and merciless robots left over from wars long past. In Enslaved, players take on the role of Monkey, a strong and brutish loner, and his AI partner Trip, a technologically savvy but sheltered young woman from a peaceful community. Both become captured by a mysterious slave ship, which are rumored to harvest people and take them out west never to return. As they each attempt to escape, Trip realizes quickly that Monkey, with his raw strength and power, is the only hope she has of making the perilous journey back home. She hacks into a slave headband to enslave Monkey and link them together - if she dies, he dies. Her journey has now become his.

Players must make sure both Monkey and Trip work together as they skillfully navigate through the world and survive against the dangerous enemy obstacles that lie in wait. Monkey will deftly wield his trusty staff weapon to attack and defend against enemies, using a combination of melee attacks, blocks and counters. He will also be able to perform spectacular takedown moves, allowing him to rip an enemy apart piece by piece, take its weapon for his own use or destroy it in one final blow.

Features:
  • A CINEMATIC MASTERPIECE - Featuring dramatic cutscenes co-directed by Andy Serkis, (Lord of the Rings, King Kong) who also plays the lead role of Monkey, portraying critical events that drive the story of Monkey and Trip
  • STUNNING ENVIRONMENTS - Explore a beautiful, eerie world of war-ravaged cityscapes that have been reclaimed by nature and are fraught with danger at every turn
  • TACTICAL GAMEPLAY - Think on your feet! Survey the environment, work together with Trip and choose your path to battle through the perilous environmental and deadly enemy obstacles that await
  • ENGAGING STORYLINE - Play through an original story co-written by famed novelist and screenwriter, Alex Garland, (The Beach, 28 Days Later); Loosely inspired by the classic Chinese novel "Journey to the West," experience the evolving relationship between Monkey and Trip through their plight for survival
  • DYNAMIC COMBAT SYSTEM - Attack and defend with agile prowess using a combination of melee attacks, blocks and intense takedowns which allow Monkey to overtake an enemy to steal its weapon for his own use, rip the enemy apart piece by piece or destroy it in one satisfying final blow.

Review by Hayden on 30th December, 2011
3 stars "Only like it for the story"

The story is cool (as it's a re-imaging of the Chinese story Journey to the West), and distracting enemies is great fun and blends in with the story very well, rather than being a ‘hey look at this cool thing you can do’.

The thing that makes this almost unplayable though is the camera and how it's constantly bobbing around like shaky cam in movies. I have to close my eyes just so they don't hurt sometimes. I'm constantly moving the right stick to try steady the camera.

The combat itself is very lame. Repeated hold square, then hit triangle twice then hold block and go again. There's really no other way to fight because there's no combos other than square, square, square, and triangle, triangle. You get such limited amount of ammo there's no point in shooting.

There's almost no point in dodging as it doesn't get you far. You might as well have just walked there. It would have been better if the dodge was left stick + block rather than left stick + jump, because sometimes he'll jump and sometimes he'll dodge.

Overall, it's not a BAD game. The story is what makes this game worth getting

Review by Nathan on 21st November, 2011
4 stars "Freestyle Fantasy Action!!"

This game is quite enjoyable. The graphics are fantastic aswell as the story line and game play. One down side I found was the camera angles with many finishing attacks that go in slow-mo. Over-all this game will keep you interested throughout. The features are great! The characters are pretty cool apart from Pigsy whose just disturbing. Its an easy game to follow in ruite, killing robots grows on you during game play. Another great smash em up game with a small amount of tactic and accuracy techniques invloved.

 
 
Review by Ethan on 18th January, 2012
4 stars "Underrated Gem"

Ninja Theory's ‘Enslaved: Odyssey to the West’ is a hell of a game. Beautiful graphics, a gripping story, great characters (and development of characters), and varied gameplay create an experience worth seeing through till the end.

Minor gripes would be the sometimes sluggish controls, as combat is good but not as great as it could be, and platforming seems far too easy in most parts.

However this shouldn't deter you from at least trying the game out for yourself. Try it, and you might be in for a treat.

5 stars "A great Game."

Really good game I enjoyed it heaps amazing story line, any hardcore gamer that is into a fantasy styled game should play this.

Really nice back rounds and charcters really fun game with the parkour aspect that the lead hero “monkey” does the fighting style repeatative but still a good game ^__^

"Story driven Adventure!"

Enslaved: Odessey to the West

Based on an old chinese legend – adapted to a futuristic post apocalyptic Earth

Fun gameplay nothing ground breaking but offers, as far as im concerned, the best voice acting/facial emotion to date of any game from any console. Humour, anger and love Enslaved gives the gamer a story driven adventure with very basic game mechanics great for the casual gamer.

Not a fan of story driven games- this may not be for you.
