Grey Skies: A War of the Worlds Story is one of the strongest arguments that copyright should remain on literature into perpetuity. I don't really believe that, of course, but when any hack can take a classic novel of such gravitas as War of the Worlds, and turn it into a delivery mechanism for a form of propaganda that the author stood diametrically opposed to, there's a problem. Not only has this developer completely insulted the author's memory and undermined the integrity of his work, but they've willfully delivered a game that completely misinterprets everything about the source material... and as a fan of Wells, good literature, and good video games that's just an insult to the intelligence.

I was fine with the bad graphic, lack of textures, poor collision detection, and the terrible enemy AI, but reached my breaking point with the escape from the tripod level. Just unplayable!

Bought at nintendo market for us14.99, start the game, graphics not up to par with white lines, maybe not tune up for switch but good at PS4? Then no instructions for buttons, just press randomly to know what its for, linear gameplay. Buy if u like alien invasion.
