Our take on Hush
Players who want a low-pressure action-adventure may bounce off when combat demands that they face the fear-themed creatures directly. The toy-based fighting and exploration are central to getting Ashlyn through the orphanage, so the game's challenge can become a sticking point before its story reaches its escape.
