Deathloop Review

As the title screen loads in, the hum of the background is strangely familiar – reminiscent of a diner from many years ago. Two characters appear on screen, jumping into a fighting position and allowing the menu to be exposed. BREAK THE LOOP or PROTECT THE LOOP are the two options, although the Protect icon is greyed out for the time being. As you select BREAK THE LOOP, the scene fades away ...[Read More]
