Late Shift is a high stakes FMV crime thriller. Forced into a brutal London heist, your choices matter in this interactive cinematic experience with adaptable storylines that lead to one of seven conclusions. Your decisions are you.
The game thrusts players into the role of protagonist Matt, presenting the entire experience through full motion video (FMV) footage with no traditional gameplay. Players must make quick, high-stakes decisions that shape the outcome of the narrative, with their choices leading to one of seven possible endings.
Reviewers highlight how the over 180 decision points allow players to make vastly different choices that drastically alter the story's trajectory. One player noted they had "two completely different stories and endings" after playing through the game twice, emphasizing the high replayability as players experiment with alternative paths.
When prompted, players only have a few seconds to choose an option, creating a sense of tension and urgency. As one reviewer commented, this time pressure can be "stressful" but also heightens the cinematic experience, as players must react quickly just as the protagonist would in the unfolding events.
Reviewers consistently praise the game's cinematic qualities, with comments on the excellent cinematography, color grading, and acting performances. One player noted the "professional-grade presentation" helps to immerse them in the crime thriller story, bringing a sense of weight to the choices they make.
