We haven't seen a notable release crash and burn like this for awhile.
By contrast Werewolf: The Apocalypse Earthblood, legitimately one of the worst modern games I have ever played, got a 54. Balan Wonderworld got a 51, at least on PS5. That Smurfs Game that you probably don't remember came out is in the mid 60s.
Paradoxically this makes me kind of interested to play Gollum because it's such a trainwreck. Not at full price, of course, or even half price, but if it ever drops into that $10 range I could be tempted...
I have some nostalgia for the era of cruddy licensed games that tried to be real games but failed, and I wouldn't mind playing a new one. 38 is pretty rough though. Pretttty rough.
Maybe it will rise as more reviews are added and I'll update for this post, but ladies, gentlemen, and non-binary buds, we may be seeing the birth of the consensus worst 'big' game of 2023! EXCITING TIMES!
ETA: On PC it is at 43, so that's officially the good version!
