But if you're happy just to be told an entertaining story in a realistic depiction of contemporary London, with a little spooky magic sprinkled in, there's a lot here to love. If you're expecting an interactive, malleable narrative that your actions impact on, you'll be disappointed. As Shaka delivers the final blow, Shun wakes up and stops Shaka, but Ikki informs Shun that he will defeat the Gold Saint. A small Southern county hopes to land a starring role in the commercial space race. But everything else-the engaging plot, the stylish presentation, the natural-sounding voice acting, the snappy direction, the sublime orchestral score-are all superb. Last Stop on the Way to the Cosmos No Thanks.
It's really basic stuff, even compared to early Telltale games, where you at least got the chance to snuffle around the environments for extra flavour. Last Stop is one of the least satisfying narrative games I've played in terms of the mechanics underpinning everything. This makes the world feel disappointingly static, despite being rich with keenly observed details that will be particularly familiar to anyone who's ever lived in the UK.

Jack's bedroom is full of stuff I want to read and pick up, but all I can do is walk dutifully to the next scene trigger. The convincingly lived-in, cluttered environments look great, but you never get a chance to explore them to dig out more details about the story or characters. Last Stop is an interactive story with the occasional walking simulation or quick-time event baked in that occasionally (and frustratingly) messes up the pacing. But for residents of the exclusive islands in the flight path, the stakes feel sky-high. There's no tactile feeling to the interactions, whether you're tapping the bumpers to sprint or rotating a stick to stir a mug of tea. A small Southern county hopes to land a starring role in the commercial space race. The QTE-style interactions feel clumsily bolted on, and I never got the sense that I was actually controlling the characters-just triggering the next canned animation.
