Two lives. One fate..
In Enslaved, players take on the role of Monkey, a strong and athletic, yet solitary figure, who been captured by one of the mysterious slave ships, which harvest the remaining population and take them out west never to return. Trip, a technologically savvy young woman who has also been imprisoned by the same ship, manages to escape. She quickly realizes that Monkey, with his raw strength and power, is her only hope to survive the perilous journey back to her home. She hacks into a slave headband and fits it on Monkey, linking them together – if she dies, he dies… Her journey has now become his and Monkey must now travel west alongside Trip as they traverse a demolished world, under constant threat of capture and mortal peril.

Enslaved is a premier adventure and gaming experience. Players will enjoy taking on the role of Monkey, utilizing a mix of combat, strategy and environmental traversal to ensure he and Trip survive the threats and obstacles that stand in the way of their freedom.

If you're looking for a game that will keep you playing just for the story look no further. The strongest feature in this game is the plot, featuring a small but well developed cast of characters and story that will keep you interested from start to finish. The gameplay follows a standard "button masher" formula similar the Kingdom Hearts or God of War series.

Despite the lack of ingenuity in how this interactive story is played, I have found it to still be an incredibly immersive experience due to the richness of both story and graphics. On that note, the graphics deserve a special mention as this is an incredibly beautiful game (google screenshots to see for yourself).

Is this game worth buying? Definitely. Is this game worth $60, well that depends on if you are more interesting in the storytelling portion of the interactive storytelling experience games provide. If you've enjoyed titles such as Heavy Rain, Psychonauts, and/or the Mass Effect trilogy where the plot is the selling point of the game, then I would recommend buying this game as soon as possible. If not, then I would recommend waiting until the price drops down to something more reasonable before purchasing it.

Fun: 4.0 out of 5 stars   
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West is an action adventure game from developer Team Ninja that attempts to re-imagine the ancient Chinese story Journey to the West with a bit of future apocalyptica flare.

You follow the story of a young tech girl named Trip and a battle-hardened vagabond named Monkey. After escaping from a slave ship, Monkey must escort Trip safely back to the village she was kidnapped from, whether he wants to or not. Set in a time where free men struggle to survive in a world dominated by the homicidal mechanical ruins of a long ended war, you must run, jump, and smash your way through crumbling cities and clockwork goliaths to reach your goal.

I had a lot of fun playing Enslaved and can honestly say that I fully enjoyed the experience. That experience, however, has to be taken with a grain of salt. Do not purchase this game expecting a deep gameplay experience. It is very straight forward. Run and hit things. That's pretty much it. The battle system mainly boils down to pressing the attack button repeatedly while intermittently tapping a dodge button. There are some more aspects involved but nothing really game changing. Outside of combat, the game has a heavy focus on parkour-style exploration. However, this feature is noticeably shallow. Rather than preforming any button combinations that may require mental and reflexive dexterity, you simply run toward the object in front of you and tap jump, and your character takes care of the rest. Hell, you don't even have to guess at where to go next, because that area will be lit up brightly just in case you stopped to wonder if you had to go anywhere but straight for once. Level designs are straightforward, with exploration only ever really extending as far as 'there is a path that veers slightly to the right, lemme check there for something new'. This isn't going to scratch your adventure game explorer itch the way say, Ocarina of Time may have.

That being said, this game is enjoyable so long as you don't go into it expecting more than it is capable of offering. It is beautiful. The graphics are fantastic, and the world Monkey and Trip travel through is at times breath-taking. Sapphire blue skies that reach out to the horizon, as well as lovingly detailed urban environments with the lush greens of invasive nature are the staple of this game. I often found myself stopping and playing with the camera angles just to get a look at the world the developers had crated. The level design is also fantastic. Yes, they usually are straightforward, but the complexity of the scenery and architecture around you will quickly help you forget that you are essentially traveling down a convoluted corridor the whole time.

Another winning point for this game is the characters. At first they seem rather cookie-cutter at first: the strong hero tasked with protecting the weak, but support-effective girl, and the third wheel comedic relief. While they do fill these roles rather typically, their personalities, dialogue, and voice acting truly set them apart and above other video game casts to date. Also, the game has a very subtle sense of humor that took me completely by surprise. I found myself at several moments bursting with laughter at dialogue and cutscenes that were delivered with such perfectly unexpected comedic timing. The motion capture is phenomenal, and by the end of the relatively short campaign you will feel a true sense of humanity from each of the heroes. Speaking of the end, I was pleasantly surprised by that as well. Without spoiling anything for you, be prepared for the game to end with a twist that is both unexpected and slightly unsettling.

All in all, if you're a fan of adventure games and can appreciate a title for its good points without it being some ground-breaking achievement, get this game. However, don't you dare pay full price for it. Nothing more than $30 is acceptable. If you do find it for cheap though, jump on it. So long as you dive into the game without expecting it to give you things it can't promise you should be able to garner a sense of appreciation for it, as I have.

3/5 stars

5.0 out of 5 stars A Different Perspective January 7, 2012

Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
Ok, so everybody, even most of the negative reviews, rave about the story, graphics, and voice acting. I also agree with all of these points. Where I differ with most is about the gameplay.

I am a trophy hunter. Once I start a game, I cannot move on to another without seeing that platinum trophy pop up in the upper right hand corner of my TV. There have been few exceptions to that rule. Even those exceptions get completed to platinum with time. Taking that into mind, I delve as deep into each game as I possibly can.

There is no way you can button mash through this game if you are trying to get the platinum. There are a lot of trophies (49 of which 17 are completed by beating the game on hard) that require you to actually use cunning and skill. Sure, if all you want to do is beat the game, throw it on easy and enjoy some button mashing. However, I started my first play through on hard. You will quickly find out that button mashing will not get you through the hard difficulty without making you go bald. Wait until you are button mashing on some robot while three others are running in to pummel you for your horrible tactics. Or you say, "Hey look! There are a few robots just sitting there. Oh, wait, wait! Oh GOD DAMNIT!!!" You just got owned by three machine gun robots in the distance because you weren't cautious.

As far as you needing to or not needing to think of where to go next, try finding 100% of those tech orbs without thinking of every possible way the developers could have hidden those tiny red dots. They exploit every camera angle and every millimeter of playing area they can to make sure you don't have an easy time finding them. They even throw a few wrenches into the whole operation that will make you say, "WTF! I haven't had to do anything like that up to this point to find an orb."

Those are just two prime examples of how I differ from the rest of these opinions. There are more than a couple more dozen reason I could point out that the gameplay is spectacular.

Maybe there aren't that many trophy hunters out there who might appreciate what I am talking about but, I figured I'd put in my two cents anyways.

Highly recommended!

Monkey?
they call it monkey cuz the main character is a monkey boy and the story it's based on Journey to the West, an ancient chinese story which Dragon Ball it's also based on (that's why Gokuh also has a tail when his a kid)
