80%Bound by Flame review: cold as ice
Bound by Flame is a generic mess
40%Bound by Flame - ambitious RPG, brutal combat, and painful voicework
Ultimately Spider’s follow up to Mars: War Logs is a far better effort than its predecessor. You can’t help but appreciate the effort put forth, as well as the fantastic concepts and new approach to storytelling. Bound by Flame provides engaging mechanics and choices that actually matter, if you can stomach the horrible voice work.
