Humanity [PS5] Review
I started playing Humanity after reading some positive impressions and wanting to ensure I didn’t miss its time on PlayStation Plus Extra. I just subscribed to the service and missed out on Stray because I thought it was going to stick around for longer than it did.

There wasn’t much exploration and its hook, Nemesis, was more of an ongoing gag than something to be feared. The … Read More
