Industria Review (PlayStation 5)

by Jim Smale · June 27, 2022

Our Industria Review has us playing this first-person shooter that takes us from East Berlin into a parallel reality, shortly before the end of the Cold War. On the search for a missing work colleague, we try and decipher the dark past in a mysterious parallel dimension. On the evening of the fall of the Berlin wall, a young woman plunges headlong into a parallel dimension to find her missing work colleague who has disappeared under mysterious circumstances. While the checkpoints in East Berlin are still being overrun by crowds of people, Nora escapes from this world, into unknown layers of time and into an unknown fate.
