The ReCore action was set in the distant future. Humanity must flee Earth by targeting the planet Far Eden. However, this place is not prepared for Disco Polo, so before taking the grounds, people send robots to the site that will adapt the area to prepare every corner for the arrival of colonizers. During this time, the interested parties themselves are hibernating and waiting for the mechs to do all the dirty work. Unfortunately, this does not happen, and when Joule wakes up from a long sleep, she realizes that the machines have decided to rebel, and to make matters worse, she is almost alone in this world - initially her only companion is Mack, a robo-dog.

ReCore In this neat paragraph I basically summarized a large part of the story that is not told in a long introduction or a well-made cutscene. The authors show from the very beginning that in this story we have to discover basically everything on our own and this idea does not always work. While wandering around the locations, we come across rudimentary information that we need to organize and extract the necessary knowledge from it. This procedure appears in many games, and the concept defends itself here as well. Maybe sometimes I lacked the motivation to learn the stories, but the problem here is rather the gameplay itself, which I will mention in a moment. It is definitely worth getting to know the story, because the events take on the appropriate dimension and actually intrigue you. The bright spot in the script is undoubtedly the main character. Joule is a nice girl who believes she can solve the mystery and find out why the colonization did not go as planned. The game still has many difficult questions that the protagonist answers during this nine-hour journey.

ReCore is a typical platformer in which we observe the action from the perspective of a third person. Basically gameplay can be divided into three parts - combat, jumping and exploration. In the first case, the heroine uses a powerful rifle, which, as the events unfold, receives special colored ammunition. The color is important here, because the opponents have the same colors, so by using the appropriate projectiles, we can destroy the opponent faster. Each time we fight the mechs and usually - after breaking the energy bar - we can tear the core out of them. If you decide to finish the fight faster, a mini-game of tugging the rope starts - it adds a nice color to the standard shooting, but after some time you get fed up. How many times can you do the same thing? This is where the biggest problem of ReCore is revealed, because Joule does not learn new skills, and each encounter looks almost identical. The fights with the bosses are a minimal innovation, but basically the difference is only in more intense jumping and dodging.
