KONG: SURVIVOR INSTINCT
Kong: Survivor Instinct is certainly not the worst Kong game we’ve played in recent years – we got Skull Island: Rise of Kong just a year ago, after all – but even though it does have some redeeming qualities (like its sparse escape sequences), there’s ultimately more to dislike than like. Everything from the combat to the level design feels too underbaked – the latter in particular being a cardinal sin for a Metroidvania platformer – while the story doesn’t do much heavy-lifting (or any lifting at all) either.
