This game looks cool and flowy on videos, but the actual reality of playing it is that it's slow and methodical. Frequently you are stripped of your powers and need to walk around solving very boring jumping puzzles. Even when you do have the powers, enemies have shields and other things that force you to eliminate them in very specific orders. I thought I was getting into something fun an open-ended, and instead found a first person puzzle-platformer. Evaluate if that is what you are after.
