Nostalgia often has a way of creeping into the games you least expect. I had no idea that upon playing Deadlight: Director’s Cut I was going to be transported back to the first time I laid my hands on the original Prince of Persia in 1989. Truth be told, Deadlight: Director’s Cut controls significantly better than the classic platformer, but the inspirations are clearly there. On its own merit, the game is a gorgeous-looking tale of a man traveling through the zombie apocalypse. Like any journey through a walker-infested city, it did come with its own set of problems, but manages to pull off just enough for a fun experience.
