Crash: Autodrive

As always with titles on Switch that lean more into storytelling and less into gameplay Crash is challenging to really review...

For what it’s trying to accomplish and how it layered the subject matter, CRASH: Autodrive is truly deep for just how short it is. Of course, therein lies the clincher — as it has stated numerous times, it is, indeed, short. There’s plenty to investigate, a few mini-games, a couple of false leads, and tons of flavor text that really flesh out the world of 2027 Pittsburgh, but this game is less a full meal and more of a perfectly portioned dish you might order at a Michelin Star restaurant — it’s small, but rich, and those who appreciate the flavors will know when it’s time to stop eating. If you still value games as the quotient of pricepoint and hours spent in-game, you’ll likely still feel peckish upon completion. If length doesn’t deter you from a quality experience, don’t miss out on this mini mystery.
