Everybodys Gone to the Rapture

Expert reviews and ratings
A leisurely stroll through a beautiful apocalypse. Rapture is stirring and heartfelt, but may be too slow and hands-off for...
By PC Gamer onIt’s a shame that Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture falls for the trap of slowing players down to force engagement because it does the exact opposite. There’s plenty to latch onto here, but the slow movement speed and technical problems distract from the otherwise moving story.
