I originally wanted to play on PlayStation 4, but chose Xbox One as the platform so that I wouldn’t risk missing anything. Most of this article will read like a review, and first I’ll discuss the game itself as though it is a review, but then I’ll delve into the reason why I actually can’t give it a proper score.īefore I get too far into this, I’d like to briefly touch upon the controversy that occurred just prior to the game’s launch, when the publisher announced that certain parts would be censored on PlayStation. But I can’t review the game at this stage for a single, critical reason. The game shows true heart and true promise, but unfortunately doesn’t go much past that at this point. Set in Italy during World War II, the game follows a young woman in the days following her sister’s sudden and shocking death. So when Martha is Dead was announced, and said to be a psychological horror game set in a time of war, I firmly believed The LKA team could do these issues justice.

LKA is, to me, best known for approaching some very sensitive topics in The Town of Light. I don’t believe topics should be ignored in games, but I do believe that certain issues need to be handled delicately things like mental illness, sexual assault, and war are not topics to be taken lightly.
