Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 review

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is Sandfall Interactive's debut, which tells me two things about the French studio. Firstly, that they're a bunch of utter show offs and, secondly, that they're a bunch of utter show offs. You can't do this, Sandfall. You can't just come storming out the gate with a turn-based RPG possessed of all the flash and experimentation of Lost Odyssey or Legend Of Dragoon plus all the haunting playfulness and bizarre beauty of both Miyazakis having a thumb war while Yoko Taro rolls around on the floor beside them.
