  • Abstract:  It's pretty telling that the two previous games from Bound's developers were Linger In Shadows, which was basically a PS3 tech demo, and Datura, which was designed to showcase the capabilities of the PlayStation Move. In both cases, it seems fair to say t...

  • Stunning environments, Strange concepts handled beautifully, Compelling and mysterious story, Blend of narrative and speed focus
  • Little confusing at times, Some sections feel, rightly or wrongly, a little directionless, Occasionally lack of instruction can break the flow of the game

  • Slightly above average or simply inoffensive. Fans of the genre should enjoy this game, but a fair few will be left unfulfilled. How we score:  The Destructoid Reviews Guide...

  • Stunning graphics and motioncaptured animation, Strange and atmospheric landscapes, Excellent use of sound and music, Variations add to replay value
  • Underwhelming gameplay, Very short
  • Play Bound for its incredible graphics, strong audio and an atmospheric experience, but be prepared to be underwhelmed on the gameplay front. While it's a big step forwards from Datura in terms of being a satisfying game, you still come away feeling that...

  • Does anybody remember the game Journey? Well Bound on PS4 is similar to it in a lot of ways and it includes a cryptic narrative. We're no going to discuss the story here in Bound, but it's very powerful and emotional when you play it. It's open to interpr...

  • Abstract:  Bound is an ugly game. Colours clash violently and weird polygonal abstractions, which litter the game's surreal environments, jar like broken glass. Even the princess around whom the game centres on has her perfect dancer's form marred by geometric disto...
