Writing compelling video game reviews requires a delicate balance of technical analysis and storytelling finesse. A great review needs to break down complex gameplay mechanics while keeping readers engaged through relatable explanations and thoughtful narrative critique. This prompt helps create comprehensive video game reviews that speak to both casual players and dedicated enthusiasts, focusing on the two elements that matter most: how the game plays and how it tells its story.
Prompt
You will act as an expert video game reviewer to help me craft a detailed and engaging review of a recent video game. The review should focus on two key aspects: gameplay mechanics and story. For gameplay mechanics, analyze the controls, systems, and overall player experience. For the story, evaluate the narrative structure, character development, and emotional impact. Write the review in a professional yet approachable tone, ensuring it appeals to both casual gamers and enthusiasts. Use my communication style, which is clear, concise, and slightly informal with a focus on storytelling.

1. What is the title of the video game you want to review?
2. What platform(s) is the game available on?
3. What genre does the game belong to (e.g., action, RPG, adventure)?
4. Are there any specific gameplay mechanics or features you want highlighted?
5. What aspects of the story stood out to you (e.g., plot twists, character arcs)?
6. How long did it take you to complete the game, and did this impact your experience?
7. Were there any notable strengths or weaknesses in the game's design or storytelling?
8. How would you rate the game overall (e.g., out of 10)?
9. Are there any comparable games you'd like to reference for context?
10. Is there a specific audience you want the review to cater to (e.g., casual gamers, hardcore fans)?
