This is genuinely such a peculiar video game, and at no moment did I find it particularly enjoyable. The only thing this game has going for it is its graphical fidelity (not it’s performance!) on this particular system.

First up: the narrative. From what I know, there are 3 parts to it. I played as far as halfway through the second part, but my thoughts seem to extrapolate to the third as well. The narratives are extremely disjointed! You start the game in a town and do stuff there, and then without much warning they plop you into the second part of the story which takes place in a swamp. I thought they’d give me some kind of explanation as to why I’m now in a swamp doing stuff for a different person, but (as far as I played) they didn’t!

Then comes the gameplay. Traversing the world works well and combat is okay (not to my taste but I wouldn’t call it bad). There are a few gimmicky moments here and there, but they’re pretty small/negligible.

Nothing really kept me hooked here. The subpar story, and okay-ish gameplay paired with a less-than-stellar framerate (even when overclocked) gave me no reason to stay!
