One of my favorite games
I quite enjoyed Kona with it's style of gameplay. It was however clear that the game lacked certain useful mechanics, as you can also find pointed out in other reviews such as: a clean and easy to use inventory, clear step-by-step progress tracking, journal functions and then some. I did enjoy the approach though. The vehicle functions weren't too shabby and I was a bit surprised at how well it worked. A minor set-back was perhaps the inability to drive off reads with your pick-up truck. Alas the main good thing was the story, but even that seemed to be cut short in the end scene. I do hope this isn't the last we see of Kona as it has potential to become great.
I'm rather new to the whole sandbox, horror, explore and progress type of games but I can truthfully admit that this was a ride all on it's own. The game is very well made and functions to near perfection appart from the occasional framrate stutter when entering new areas. The story is refreshing and tickles the mind with various dilemmas to consider so with all this in mind I can highly recommend the game.
