    So who likes fried werewolf huh?!

    *Ahem*

    So what we got here is a quirky title from a game studio more renowned for their PSP games of already established franchises, chiefly Daxter and the two God Of War PSP games. The Order is their first original IP, which is exclusive to PS4. You're thrown in a very steampunky late-victorian era London where weapons exist that can produce electricity for some strange reason.You as the player are thrown into the role of Galahad (no, not THAT Galahad who may or may not wear a sharp tailored suit) who is part of the King Arthur's Knights Templar (who aren't exactly doomsday hungry like Assassin's Creed interpretation). Galahad himself, as well as most of the other Knights have lived for centuries thanks to a mysterious elixir they consume that can also heal their wounds and temporarily grant them 'Black Sight' (think Neo's bullet-time), in addition to longevity.

    The game is your run-of-the-mill linear cover based shooter, brimming with quick-time events and cinematics, and largely centres around the main protagonist uncovering the truth with a smol sprinkling of supernatural thrown in.

    Has anyone played this? It's a fairly short game, the plot of which seems to visit the usual tropes. Perfect for those who like steampunk and gothic horror themes.

    I haven't played it myself but I have been thinking about picking it up, well that was until I saw the reviews. So I'll probably only pick it up if I find it really cheap somewhere.
