Samson proves there's still room for smaller Grand Theft Auto-style sandboxes – I just wish this one was…
Samson, the debut game from Liquid Swords, offers a purpose-driven take on the open-world crime sandbox genre, inspired by titles like Grand Theft Auto and Heat. While it compromises on polish, particularly in its combat and driving mechanics, its blend of roguelike and life simulation elements, focused on paying off debt as an ex-con, provides a compelling experience. The game aims to fill a niche for moderately-scoped sandboxes in an industry dominated by larger titles.
