Without spoiling the story, Trip and Monkey’s bond changes as the plot progresses and there is a decent enough break from comedy, at the expense of Monkey and Pigsy, to stop the game being overly serious. The storyline presents players an opportunity to see the relationship between the two main characters form and grow, resulting in an amazing story-driven title.
The small cast of characters that players will meet along the journey are certainly unique. The animations and the general acting of the cutscenes is also top notch, offering realistic and genuine heart warming and clenching moments throughout the title. This makes Monkey seem even better at what he does best. Whether you swing to the next bar or just pull yourself up on top of the one you are dangling from the motion flows from the last movement into the next effortlessly.
Moving around and, in particular, swinging has a great fluidity to it showing careful attention to detail has been used when using the motion capturing for the title. One thing to highlight is the animations on show in Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. Not only adding to the tense sections of the game but also drawing players into the already spectacular cutscenes. The orchestral score flows naturally with the world the game is set in. However, there is plenty of originality turning normal basic things into a vast and deep game world. Yes, there is a form of the survivors attempting to constantly kill you. On some aspects you would be right nevertheless, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West does plenty to break the mold set by other games and pulls off its attempts to distance itself from them.
Set 150 years in the future in a post-apocalyptic New York, many I am sure are thinking ‘this sounds familiar’. Enslaved: Odyssey to the West Premium Edition offers gamers all of the downloadable content in one bundle. In keeping with Wu Cheng’en’s novel, the game focuses on the relationship between the main characters with the same original roles. The game is set 150 years into the future unlike the book which is set in ancient China. The game is a re-imagining of Wu Cheng’en’s novel, Journey to the West. Back in 2012, Ninja Theory released Enslaved: Odyssey to the West.
