Control

Control is set in an engrossingly weird paranormal world that I couldn’t help but explore.

A different kind of haunted house makes Control hard to resist.

Giddy action and astonishing art design combine in one of the great locations of modern video games.

Behold, one of 2019’s best and weirdest games

The perfect blend of narrative and gameplay, coherency and strangeness, Control is a game we'll be talking about for generations.

Control's intense firefights are fun, but they don't evolve much in the second half. Fortunately, its unsettling mood and explosive moments more than balance the scales

I can’t overstate the fact that it’s a funny game – funny enough that the humour keeps you going from fight to fight, searching not for the source of your mysterious enemy, or for the answer to all the sub-mysteries surrounding Jesse, but for the next episode of the Threshold Kids.

Control is a weird, enigmatic, perplexing masterpiece. It's also Remedy's most well-rounded work yet. Like Jesse levitating far off the ground, Control signifies Remedy is capable of ascending to great new heights.
