It has some combat, but yes, mostly it’s about finding a path from Point A to Point B without dying. That includes running, jumping, climbing, and parkour. It’s pretty great.
The combat was kinda required to be shoved into it, despite developers wishes, as I recall. So it’s not great. It’s not horrible either, it’s just clunky in a way that someone who doesn’t want to fight might do a poor job of it.
The gist is that you’re a courier for illicit things (like information,) and suddenly the government is cracking down.
If you’re remotely curious, and you see it on sale, I strongly urge you to give it a shot. Maybe the tutorial level and one or two more. And if you hate it you can always refund it on Steam.
I’m actually not a huge combat person, I like RPGs and exploratory games. But I’m not big on platformers or side-scrollers. I suck at puzzles, so tend to not gravitate towards those types of games unless the story is compelling (I loved Portal, for example, but had to look up walkthroughs after a certain point). The narrative element of it does appeal, I like cyberpunk/dystopian stuff.
The game has a built-in hint system. If you’re ever stuck or confused hit the button and the next place to go will glow red. They did a lot of things right with this.
Oh, that sounds great, thank you! I just got Stray recently and they do something like this as well - put hints that are kind of immersive with the atmosphere, so it’s helpful while not being too intrusive.
