Unknown 9: Awakening review: A familiar dance in mystical shadows
A linear action-adventure that feels like a blast from gaming’s past, Unknown 9: Awakening offers an intriguing supernatural tale set in an alternate 20th century. Playing as Haroona, an Indian protagonist with mystical powers, you’ll use unique “stepping” abilities to possess enemies and orchestrate creative takedowns. While the innovative possession mechanics and strong character work shine, technical issues and dated gameplay elements hold it back. Think Uncharted meets Force powers, but with AA-game production values.
