  CG writes: KIBORG throws you into a brutal, cybernetic battleground where survival depends on how well you can punch, dodge, and outmaneuver your enemies. Right from the start, the game makes it easy to get into. Theres no overwhelming complexityjust smooth, fast-paced combat that immediately clicks.

• Review - KIBORG (PC) | WayTooManyGames

  05-05-2025 14:39 via n4g.com

  WTMG's Heidi Hawes: "Honestly, Im really disappointed that The Wickie: Journey of a Lighthouse Keeper wasnt released more fully developed. I love the concept of being dropped into a strange world with no exposition dumps, and only your exploration and puzzle solving skills being able to guide you through and make sense of things. Id love to revisit this game someday when its in a more playable state, but as of now its more of a frustration than a challenge."
