Peaky Blinders: King's Ransom

Linear first-person game, based around characters of popular TV series "Peaky Blinders", a crime gang based in Birmingham (England)

Strong sides:

  • Recognizable characters with noticeable personality
  • Nice shooting mechanics and animation
  • Huge amount of items to discover the story and key figures
  • Flexible controls: teleport & loco
  • Nice choreography and animations

Weak sides:

  • Very short (less than 2 hours)
  • A bit linear and 'rail'
  • Graphics might be more impressive
  • Not very natural interactions with the environment
  • Lack of hints in case of non-intuitive stuck situations

Summary and conclusion:

We recommend this game to the fans of TV series, who might be interested to have a short voyage to Peaky Blinders epoch and be one of them. For other audience it's a nice light story game with good shooter elements and mid-level graphics. Game is announced on PC VR later this year and we hope we'll see a bit better graphics.
