Metacritic’s 2023 List Of Shame: The Ten Worst Rated Games

Based not on user reviews but on press scores, the aggregator site has compiled the ten products with the worst average score on a scale of 1 to 100.

 

It should be noted that some games are missing from the list, as Metacritic only categorizes games that have received a review from at least seven press outlets. The list is missing The Day Before by the now-defunct Fntastic, or The Walking Dead: Destinies, a stupidly executed rewrite of the original story, and these would have certainly had a place on the shame list, which includes some surprising games.

 

  1.         The Lord of the Rings: Gollum (34 – PlayStation 5)
  2.         Flashback 2 (35 – PC)
  3.         Greyhill Incident (38 – PC)
  4.         Quantum Error (41 – PlayStation 5)
  5.         Testament: The Order of High Human (41 – PC)
  6.         Crime Boss: Rockay City (43 – PlayStation 5)
  7.         Hellboy: Web of Wyrd (46 – PlayStation 5)
  8.         Gangs of Sherwood (47 – PC)
  9.         Loop8: Summer of Gods (49 – Nintendo Switch)
  10. Gargoyles Remastered (49 – Nintendo Switch)

 

Daedalic Entertainment’s Lord of the Rings IP game was such a failure that the German studio has retreated to being just a game publisher, and the second part of Flashback is a pile of bugs and doesn’t live up to the legendary name of the first part. Quantum Error is an FPS that, despite being developed by a family team, is full of subtitles with serious grammatical errors (we’re talking about an American studio!), the graphics are buggy in some scenes (missing pixels on models that give you a headache if you don’t notice them), the story quickly becomes incomprehensible, and the gameplay feels amateurish, to say the least. We’re also writing in detail about TeamKill Media’s game because it’s currently only available for PlayStation 5, it didn’t live up to expectations, and yet it already has TWO sequels planned.

So let’s hear it for these games…

Still, she likes puzzle and story-oriented games, like Sherlock Holmes: Crimes & Punishments, which is her favourite title. She also played The Sims 3, but after accidentally killing a whole sim family, swore not to play it again. (For our office address, email and phone number check out our IMPRESSUM)
