Erica App PS4‪™‬ 4+

I second guessed using the app, but gave it a shot. App is a lot better then using the controller. One thing I do find hard though is swiping actions on the app, I have to do multiple swiping movements for the game to fully swipe up or down whatever I was trying to open and read. IE flipping pages in a journal. Overall, app works great and I recommend using it for the game.

Firstly, I understand that the app is quite literally called ‘Erica App PS4’ so I don’t find it incredibly surprising that it isn’t working for PlayStation 5. However, the fact that it doesn’t work with the PS5 is seemingly disappointing. Erica is a wonderful game experience that I missed out on during the PS4 generation. I’ve been playing it on my PS5 but the game insists the experience is better with the app versus the controller. I read some other reviews here that detail some of the great things the app can do and feel like I’ve missed out somewhat. Here’s to hoping that somehow the app can be updated to identify PS5 consoles running Erica via backwards compatibility.

Terrific story! The game’s run time is around 2 hours and I was captivated throughout. I just wish the game had a chapter selection or the ability to skip cutscenes you’ve already seen! I’ve played through twice and would like to see other choices play out, but I the fact that you can’t skip around makes it hard to return to the game. I think by the third time around the game’s interactive features might start to wear thin. Here’s hoping they release an update.
