Without a doubt one of the best stories in gaming. In terms of gameplay it's not spectacular as my style was full stealth mode so slower than normal, but it plays fluently and has great animation, but the story make this game so critically acclaimed as it should be.

Now with 1.13 pretty much all issues are gone. Shadow building at the start is still quite long but once you start playing it the waiting was worth it. Visually the remaster is stunning. The minimalist music adds to the game.

Pro's:
Exceptional story telling
Visually still amazing
great music
amazing animation
fluent gameplay

The meh:
gameplay though fluent not groundbreaking

the bad:
Had a huge false start but problems have been taken care of.
Creating the shadows at the first start still take a lot of time.

You play as a boy running through a dystopian future solving not very hard puzzles and staying away from enemies. It's best desribed as an interactive experience. The whole game isn't really that challenging and quite short, but it does does deliver an amazing experience. You never get stuck in a way that it's impossible to find solutions even for novice players. The story or better yet the lack of it just adds to the atmosphere to the game.
The graphics although looking simplistics does the game justice and the animation is silky smooth.
My only gripe with the game is the last part and the ending. It just felt off. That said it's still one hell of an experience.

Got it at a 10 key blind buy man even at that price it isn't even worth it.

So whats wrong with it.

- It says it uses physics but the balls behave so unreal it's pathetic.
- one miss basically means start the level all over again. making a shot is 1 point. missing generally is minus 3 or 4 points.
- The balls doesn't even seem to roll.
- The so called target line isn't even accurate
- Can't fine tune shots nor have a different view than top down.
- Even the menu look bad.

In the end the only positive point I can find is the idea. The idea is solid however the execution of it is just horrible.
