The world could use more games like RiME. Relaxing, colourful, pretty... Tequila Works' puzzle platforming adventure seemingly has an awful lot going for it. If you've been keeping up to date on the game, you'll know that it's drawn comparisons with ICO, Journey and others like it.
But when such heavy hitters in the genre are bandied about, surely you're setting yourself up for a big fall. How can something possibly live up to such lofty expectations? Does RiME manage to justify such comparisons, or is it a pale facsimile of a dozen better games?
