Watch This! is described as a first-person platformer with elements of horror. It’s quite a tricky game but doesn’t let on much at all as to why you are doing what you’re doing. There are traps to avoid, monsters to hide from and presents to buy. Why do you have do all of this? The only answer is to please the TV audience and your family.
The graphics in Watch This! are really something to get a load of, apart from the crudely drawn family members you are assigned. Monsters are creepy and imaginative, traps are devilishly devious and room designs are pleasing to the eye. The music is also quite entertaining and does a good job of keeping you on your toes.
Ultimately, Watch This! comes with a very low price tag so is worth it’s cost, but you might find yourself wondering why you should be playing it. However, it’s a fairly decent first-person platformer so please watch our video and see if you like what you see!
