Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ This clears in a weekend (1.2h main story), pick it up without derailing anything else in your backlog.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (1.8h with extras, 2h to 100%).
- ✓ You enjoy tight, skill-based movement and level design.
Skip It If...
- ✗ Reviews are mixed (62/100). It has fans, but it is not a consensus win.
- ✗ You want a game with real longevity. This is over almost as soon as it starts (1.2h main story).
- ✗ Precision platforming isn't your thing, some sections will test your patience more than your fun.
