Skin Deep review


Eurogamer's review of the immersive sim Skin Deep - it's wonderful. Find out why this is a fine addition to the genre.

It's in outer space for one thing, and for another its calm, ordered stacks are protected by fidgety electrical gates that zap you if you're trying to move through them with a book you haven't checked out. You spend so much of your time up high on a railing or hidden in shadows, watching patrol routes and planning and reading the notes staff have left for one another, sounding them out for clues, but sooner or later you need to get stuck in, and when you do, things can go wrong. All of this is of a piece with the rest of Blendo Games' back catalogue: the exploding birds and the hectic chase from Gravity Bone, the airport departure board with a plane due for West Egg in Thirty Flights.
