The Bottom Line:
"Uninspired"
To start, the controls are as stiff as a board! You're lucky if you can make it through the first level without have the game automatically run you off an edge! Which leads us to the second problem, glitches! Yes, this game is glitchy... very glitchy actually. You'll most likely run through a wall or be killed without being touched by anything! Also, it's uninspired! Even when you think, "Hey it might finally get good!" because you see "Armor" available to buy, you realize you just wasted 200 koins (Yes they're called koins) on a helmet that will give you about 3 extra health then dissappear! But on the bright side, the graphics are pretty good and it CAN SOMETIMES be funny... RARELY! But I guess if you're into stiff action adventure games that both frusturate and confuse you, this is the game for you.

Pros: Graphics aren't horrible.

Cons: Stiff. Glitchy. Confusing. Frusturating. NOT FUNNY! Uninspired. Combat is repetetive. Armor vendors rip you off. There's almost no fun to be had with this game. I forgot to mention earlier that combat is extremely repetetive! And in a sorry attempt to make it good, the creators made some enemys with shields! (Oooooh, creative!) But this actually makes combat more boring. It also seems like all that you're doing is killing a few baddys, taking a key and then opening a door to a new room where you can repeat the process again! PLUS I don't know about you but I can't watch one those crummy cinematics for 5 seconds without dropping the F bomb atleast twice! Trust me, this game is not cool. It's not eunique. This game isn't even OK! The only reason it's getting a 5 from me is because it can be best described as mediocre! Trust me, stay away from this game! Don't believe anyone else! Just stay away!
