The Lord of the Rings: Gollum (2023 Video Game)
1/10
They should be offering refunds for this.

Really disappointed with Gollum. It's a buggy mess that fails to deliver on any front. $70 feels like a highway robbery for this repetitive slog. The controls are unresponsive, making even basic platforming a chore. Glitches with the AI mechanics and frames dropping constantly disrupt the flow, and the game crashes way too often.

To get the Platinum trophy, you will have to beat the game without dying. Unless they improve the platforming dynamics, that's just not possible.

Gollum's internal conflict, a potentially fascinating theme, is wasted entirely. The narrative choices feel pointless, and the world itself is bland and forgettable. Developer apologies can't excuse this dumpster fire of a game. Stay far away unless you enjoy frustration and a severe case of buyer's remorse. I ended up deleting the game around chapter 4.
