Nice game that is engaging and interesting to play. Surounded by a Sharp contrast of brilliant whites and shades with the occasional touch of stark red color, you find a fast thilling game that pushes you to think and react quickly to the changing landscape as you careen across a cityscape.
It is interesting and captivating but also repetative but anyone who likes puzzles will find this a thrilling game. Inovative in the First person perspective is enjoyable and entertaining. I find the more realistic games are from this view point the better the feel one gets of being immersed into the role. So a big thumbs up for bringing this a step closer.
But is definately Oxymoron in a lot of area's. In being unique but familiar; visually exiting but plain; thrilling but boring, repetative.
To wrap up, I think it is an enjoyable, thrilling game with great visuals!
