Naughty Dog invented the uncharted series and soon became the 'poster boy' of the gaming industry. It not only took action-adventure genre by storm, it introduced a game which was a pinnacle in story telling. After gliding on its success for years, the company decided to put Uncharted 4 on halt and laid its hands on horror-action genre by introducing the last of us. With its legendary story telling and character depth, Naughty Dog proves why everything it touches turns out to be gold.
The last of us is set in the post-apocalyptic U.S., a pandemic virus breaks through the country and turns citizens into infected zombies. With all the possible efforts to develop a vaccine having failed, the only hope for the mankind in this bleak situation is Ellie - a girl who holds the key to cure the infection, and Joel - the man who is responsible for protecting Ellie. Will they be able to make it out alive of such a belligerent condition?
What makes the last of us a beautiful game is the way it adds life to the above setting. The game is brimming with every intricate emotion one cannot even imagine in a setting where death is lurking in the shadows in every possible corner you go. Straight away it touches your heart with its loading screen music and holds your undivided attention with its prologue. It makes one bleed its heart out for Joel's loss and you soon realise you have a spot for him in your heart! Since the game focuses on 'kill to survive' theme you can't help but to sympathise with Joel for miserably torturing and killing goons and innocent people. However, the show stealer in the game is Ellie, a teenage girl who not only acts as a crime partner by being a helpful side kick but also a shadow who does not leave Joel even when it is dark. She has a golden heart inside her raw and brutal personality. She shows all signs of life by getting mad at Joel, saving his life, asking questions about never seen before animals and getting ecstatic after taking down a group of thugs. Her curiosity to explore life and finding reasons to smile even in the most lethal situations makes one fall in love with her. It is a stellar sight the way both of them hold themselves and each other for the sake of survival. After a certain point of time one actually feels how their bond turns deep into a father-daughter relationship. With scintillating acting performances by every character in the game, the game ensures that they leave a lifetime impact on you. No other game comes close to the way the game makes you bond with its characters.
As far as the gameplay is concerned, it is breath-taking! It makes your heart beat whenever you get to face the infected i.e. clickers in the game and makes you regret for blowing your cover. 'Stealth' is a necessity and not a luxury in the last of us. Even a slight sound of hurriedness is caught by its AI with accuracy and in no time you would find enemies running after you. What makes the game even more difficult and intense is the amount of supplies it offers. Unlike uncharted where you have tonnes of bullets to go on a shooting spree, this game makes you regret every bullet you spend on killing your enemies as they are very few. You have to scrounge for them by visiting every corner of every place you go. So not exploring places for materials to craft things or for a handful of bullets is not an option if you have to survive in this game. The game also gives a choice with what you wish to craft with supplies you have sneaked from right under the nose of a clicker. Either craft medical kits or molotov cocktails with same set of supplies. It also has a weapon upgradation system which can be done by collecting parts from various places you search. The only way this game helps you out is by providing a environment scanning senses to Joel which detects the enemy presence and location around him. Apart from that don't expect much help from the game.
If you think things are going quite easy or 'gamy' with scanning system and wish to live off the edge, try beating this game out on 'Grounded' difficulty which makes this game worst nightmare. There is no health indicator, bullets indicator and enemy location indicator to help out. You have to plan out each and every bullet and supply, whether to exhaust them right in the beginning of the game and be at your enemies' mercy in the end or avoiding them altogether so that you have that little choice that you have 'earned' of shooting them up in the ending of the game. Whether it is graphics, narrative, characters or gameplay, the game delivers a perfect score on every aspect it touches. The only stutter it offers is in enemy AI. Just when you are intensely involved in a fist fight with a thug you notice that little loophole in AI as it behaves abruptly and punches you out of the blue. Also it tracks down Joel relentlessly while completely ignoring Ellie or any other character even if they walk right across the enemy.
With mind blowing acting performance, heart-melting narrative and intense gameplay experience, the last of us is a pinnacle of story telling and surely holds an irreplaceable place in everyone's hearts who has played it. This one is a game of generation and the best one ever created.
Naughty Dog surpasses its own benchmarks of excellence and pulls out a gem out of the hat with this one.

2nd game purchase from Electronics Bazar after The Ghost of Tsushima PS5. Both received in top notch condition. Can't wait to start TLOU to go along with HBO's TLOU.

I just loved this game's game designing, story narration, and quest. incredibly, I wish I could unplay this game so that when I will replay this game I wouldn't remember anything about it, I just cherished it.
