Trials Evolution Review


Nothing says adventure like a midnight dash across ancient ruins
Sequels are like superheroes, only appearing when the night is darkest; when all good in the world is obstruct by those who would rather us live in perpetual fear of banality. They are not the games we need, they are the games we deserve.
More often than not, the sequels we encounter are the ones we need, the ones that fund the industry. Observe the annual sprawl of Call of Duty titles. These games meet our basic needs. Short-term entertainment till the guaranteed next cash injection arrives.
Yet once in a while, a sequel emerges that we deserve, a sequel of such magnitude and genius that we can’t all but welcome its arrival with a bent knee and an oath of fealty.
