I enjoyed Bandersnatch, it was was a great concept and worked well on Netflix. It won't be my favourite Black Mirror episode, however.


The cast was alright, Will Poulter was brilliant.
The concept was interesting and after the immense popularity of video games like Until Dawn and Detroit: Become Human, it was time for a more cinematic adaption.
But some choices felt unnecessary - the cereal one, for example - where it had no impact on the story whatsoever. It was also very repetitive and cycled you back to watch the same scenes over and over again without the ability to skip much.
All in all, I enjoyed it, but it could have been improved a little bit.

A refreshing addition to the horror genre
Until Dawn took me completely by surprise. I had heard that it was decent but just wasn't drawn to it whatsoever. I ended up eventually downloading when it was made available on PlayStation Plus, and it still sat there for a few months before I finally started it up.
I have no idea why I waited so long - I was immediately hooked.
The opening scene sets up a huge amount of intrigue, to the point that I ended up playing through the story in a couple of days, and then playing through a couple more times just to see all the various story routes.

Everything you do results in a butterfly effect, and can change the story dramatically, to the point that every single character can survive the story, and every single character can perish - it's all based on what decisions you make throughout.

As far as scares go, for the most part, Until Dawn made me feel uneasy, with it's eerie setting, and the fact that you're not sure what is exactly trying to kill you, or even what is real, for a good chunk of the game, leaving you desperately trying to figure out what's happening.

The final third of the game is where that aspect drops, and all hell breaks loose.
Add to this some pretty nice performance capture, with some familiar faces littered around (Rami Malek, Peter Stormare, Hayden Panettiere, to name a few), and you have a winning formula.

Go and play it!

Take a ride on this VR horror rollercoaster through madness
Rush of Blood is a spin off of the original Until Dawn. It dives into the psyche of one of the characters and revisits several locations as well as taking you to new ones via a roller coaster. There is a very creepy atmosphere as well as really good jump scares. Your mind warps your environment between the asylum from the other 2 games and an insane carnival ride. Gameplay is basic but incredibly fun, you ride the roller coaster, shooting your enemies as well as collectibles. It's not overly long or difficult but has great replayability trying to get collectibles, trying alternate paths, beating old scores, or just enjoying it. It uses the DS4 or Move Controllers.
