Review of The Lonely Assassins by 15thDoctor

8 June 2024

A unique and immersive multimedia video game that makes fantastic use of mobile phones. Best to go in with no knowledge of the storyline but read on if you want to know more before diving in.

It follows on from the events of Blink and sees the return of Finlay Robertson who played Larry Nightingale. It delivers a new story in a variety of forms including text message conversations, phone calls and CCTV video footage. It is at times eery and genuinely affecting.

In a world where AAA Doctor Who video game titles don’t exist, this inventive use of unusual storytelling techniques is a great way to overcome a limited budget. I had a good time playing this and would play again.
