A decent enough first-person platformer that's occasionally frustrating. The frustration mostly stems from the first-person perspective, which often makes it difficult to gauge distances. This will likely be the cause of a lot of your failures in the game.

For the most part, the game does a good job of showing you where you need to go next, although a few of the areas have parts where it's tough to tell where your next destination is. The gameplay itself is simple but solid. There's no combat. You have your grapple glove, which slowly allows more grapples per jump as the game progresses (starting with one and ending with three), and a few new gameplay mechanics are introduced later in the game such as rocket boots and crystals that can recharge your glove while in mid-air.

The story was just kind of there. It's not awful, but not really memorable either. The voice acting isn't great. Not offensively bad or anything, but like the story it's just kind of there. Visually it's fine. Character models look pretty terrible but the backgrounds, while not incredible, look fine and have a unique kind of pseudo-fantasy art design. Given that this is obviously not a high-budget game, though, the graphical issues are forgiveable.

The game is also short (I beat it in just under three bucks), although if you want all the achievements you're probably in for a rough ride and it will probably take multiple playthroughs and a considerably longer span of time. I personally didn't bother.

Should you buy it? At thirteen bucks (the current non-sale price as of the writing of this review), I'd probably pass unless you're in desperate need of a puzzle/platformer. Grab it on a Steam sale.
