The Lord of the Rings: Gollum topped Metacritic's list of the top failed games of 2023

The year 2023 saw a lot of top-notch games that will be remembered for a long time.

But, perhaps, the main failures of this year will be remembered no less, just Skull Island: Rise of Kong and The Day Before, which can hardly be called anything but a deception of gamers.

Metacritic portal presented the top failed games of 2023.

Here's What We Know

The top 10 high-profile failures included only those games that received at least seven reviews. So, the aforementioned Skull Island: Rise of Kong was not included in this list, because none of the reviewers even considered it seriously, as well as the Russian fake The Day Before.

Perhaps no one will be surprised that The Lord of the Rings: Gollum is the winner of such a "prestigious" top list - the game earned only 34 points on Metacritic, and its release led to the closure of Daedalic studio.

The top 10 Worst Videogames of 2023 according to Metacritic:

1. The Lord of the Rings: Gollum - 34 points;
2. Flashback 2 - 35 points;
3. Greyhill Incident - 38 points;
4. Quantum Error - 40 points;
5. Testament: The Order of High-Human - 41 points;
6. Crime Boss: Rockay City - 43 points;
7. Hellboy: Web of Wyrd - 47 points;
8. Gangs of Sherwood - 48 points;
9. Loop8: Summer of Gods - 49 points;
10. Gargoyles Remastered - 49 points.
