Metro GameCentral: 7 / 10
A twisting and engaging portmanteau tale of the unexplained, set in a London that's refreshing in its finely observed normality.

Last Stop has something special in there to share over its six-or-so hours. Well worth having on the wishlist until the time and price are right for you.
Easy Allies: 7 / 10 by Michael Huber
The latest narrative adventure from the makers of Virginia explores characters who have to balance their daily lives amidst supernatural events, but it doesn't fully live up to its potential.
Last Stop Description
Last Stop is an adventure game in which our main task is to discover the story prepared by the creators. The game offers three stories about strangers whose fates are intertwined as a result of a supernatural event. Variable State (creators of the successful Virginia) is responsible for the development of the title. The publisher is Annapurna Interactive (What Remains of Edith Finch or Outer Wilds).
Plot
Last Stop takes place in modern-day London. Three strangers get involved in a situation connected with a certain supernatural event. The story of each of them is a separate act, which, however, is somehow connected with the others. By learning all the elements of the puzzle, we will discover the secrets of the characters and find out what connects them.
Mechanics
Last Stop is a classic three-dimensional adventure game, in which we observe the action from different perspectives - the camera moves to show us things that are important at a given moment. The game involves exploring locations, using items and talking to other characters.
During the game, we control three different characters - a man named John, a teenage girl named Donna, and a mysterious woman known as Meena. The game enables us to shape the story through our choices. We do it in dialogues, choosing the lines to be spoken by the protagonist we control.
Game modes
Last Stop can only be played solo. The mainstay of the game is the story campaign, divided into several acts.
Technical aspects
Last Stop features nice three-dimensional visuals, adopting a slightly comic book-like style. The character and location designs, which resemble animated films, are not too detailed, but they have their own character and fit the game's atmosphere well. During the game we are accompanied by a soundtrack created by BAFTA winner Lyndon Holland.
