Description: NeverBound is the gravity-shifting shooter that adds another dimension to the traditional FPS. Take part in mind-bending combat and puzzles in multi-gravity environments. You are as dangerous from below as you are from above. Scale the walls and ceilings, or use long hallways as vertical drops, as you outmanoeuvre your enemies.
NeverBound takes place in a future where a fifth fundamental force of nature has been discovered. The technology quickly revolutionizes society and allows humans to simulate arbitrary directions of gravity. A new architecture for a new age arises, STRUCT, in which the flows of populous are greatly improved due to its multi-gravity nature.
Review: While the bad news is ‘NeverBound’ is little more than yet another First Person Shooter (FPS), the good news is you have probably never played an FPS like this one. In ‘NeverBound’ any surface of a location can be your fighting ground and this leads to some of the craziest fight-scenes you will ever play. Of course, you don’t need me to tell you that this does make the game incredible nauseating. The game looks amazing, the AI offers a real challenge and there are plenty of guns to use and other power-ups to unlock.
While some will argue that the game is too short to justify the current £15.49, I found myself taking more time to finish it by enjoying all the little touches and finishes that make this game more polished than many others. But if you like to rush through a game I would definitely wait for a sale. But do give it a go as it really is a fantastic shooter that is well worth adding to your Steam Libary.
