Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ This clears in a weekend (3.5h main story), pick it up without derailing anything else in your backlog.
- ✓ You like squeezing every drop out of a game, there's a deep completionist path here (3.5h main vs 9.6h to fully clear).
- ✓ You enjoy tight, skill-based movement and level design.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want a game with real longevity. This is over almost as soon as it starts (3.5h main story).
- ✗ Precision platforming isn't your thing, some sections will test your patience more than your fun.
