Besiege: The Splintered Sea Review: Small Ship for Expansive Seafaring
I can’t compare my experience of writing a review for The Splintered Sea, the first paid expansion for the sneaky physics puzzler Besiege, to that of a sailor writing a diary facing deadly storms on the horizon. Still, if we take for granted the idea that the review is only really valuable as an insight into the player’s experience: I didn’t feel particularly good this week. Consider this: Splintered Sea is more Besiege thoughtfully applied to his already extensive toolkit. More importantly, it’s currently bringing me deep and deeply needed moments of untainted, childlike, vaguely orcish joy.
