King Kong is genuinely one of the most immersive action adventure games from the PS2 days. The game was centered around you finding your way through dense jungle and obstacles following an alternate movie story. There are no pop up hints, no minimap, no assistive tools.
The game is downright brutal and scary at times like the>!T-Rex fight. ! am still impressed by how creepy they managed to make the game during the quiet moments, or just swimming through water defenseless. I never get bored with this game.
The game holds up beautifully. The ambience and world design is extremely well done, and recreates the environment from the movie perfectly. I love the addition of rain/thunderstorms/loud bug and creature sounds that add to the creepy ambience. The musical cues are always on point to signal relief, tension or a big fight coming up.

Onward, comrades, and sink your teeth into one of the grandest and, yes, slickest XCOM homages in years.

With its emotional story and complex management mechanics, Citizen Sleeper is a game you don’t want to sleep on. You’ll be swept away by its beautiful and harrowing world-building and fall for the characters that breathe life into this already intricate world. You will die and the learning curve is steep, however it is all worth it for the philosophical story Citizen Sleeper intends to tell.
