The Path describes itself as a horror take on Little Red Riding Hood, but in the end, it stands far apart from even the best of the horror genre's traditional stewards. Sure, as noted, there are more than enough design issues here to go around, and if I was going to break it down, I'd find several issues with the presentation as well. While I found myself annoyed by the mechanical obstacles in my way, the slow walking speed, the abhorrent object interaction, the motivation tightrope remained steady enough for me to hold my balance all the way to the end. Thus, I will set that aside, at least for tonight.
There are going to be spoilers aplenty in this entry, so consider yourself warned. This is not a review in the gaming sense. I'm going to discuss the game, how it affected me, and my take on it, and the content of the story figures integrally into any discussion we're going to have here.
