Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You've got a few solid weeks to give it (13h main story), long enough to sink in, short enough to actually finish.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (16h with extras, 21.7h to 100%).
- ✓ You enjoy tight, skill-based movement and level design.
- ✓ You like being made to think, not just react.
Skip It If...
- ✗ Precision platforming isn't your thing, some sections will test your patience more than your fun.
- ✗ You want fast-paced action. This asks you to slow down and solve, not react.
