Die Young

This is the Mirror's Edge open world we never got with a bit darker tone.
The exploration and climbing and parkouring is fun enough as you explore the Island.
I recommend this game for anyone who likes the mentioned mechanics above. It features quests that are just enough to not feel dragged out. No tedius grinding.

Don't go in expecting a $49 AAA game, but not a $1,99 either. It's a solid game that will keep you entertained for a while.

The stars didn't align quite on this one. Another game that seems to suffer from identity crisis; equal parts Farcry 3 in its world and story, and the other half inspired by Mirrors Edge style parkour and combat. Where the aspects of both are never truly realized, or fleshed out in any sort of cohesive way.
The game from the start begins to show its promises with the all too familiar story: a group of friends getaway to an exotic island wherein they all become captured, and its up to our protagonist to find a way off the island, and save said friends. To the credit of the developers, there is an attempt to separate the similarities from its muses. A large portion of the first half of the game has a great idea in its climbing mechanics, which is nice on paper, but never gets a proper highlight; with the only exception being one chapter making use of it as a central point of progression. And the only other side note being the stealth system that never gets used properly enough, as it seems like the first half of the game has an idea in it's approach to stealth, as an option. but then again this is another under-baked idea.
The story is a whole separate problem, strung along with less than proper acting, and a central story that doesn't know how to properly deliver it's own message. With the one example of a stark contrast shift being the aforementioned chapter using the climbing as a highlight.
This review is too long already, so for the sake of time.

Cons:
-forgettable writing
-bad acting
-graphical inconsistencies
-strange level design most of the time
-almost every game mechanic is poorly implemented
-sound glitches
-everything that is interesting, never goes anywhere
-everywhere that is interesting, never has a purpose for staying there

Pros:
-the game is functional

3/10 (poor)

Not sure whether I want to recommend this game. I was dissatisfied and surprised by an early ending.. one of 3 endings, as I understand it. The game didn't seem to be giving me any alternative options or questlines to pursue. I get the impression from looking online that I'd only seen half of the world map, and wherever it was, I didn't find the crossbow.
The gameplay otherwise was pretty good. It was enjoyable running, jumping and climbing, escaping threats.
I didn't enjoy getting lost in hills, trying to find highlighted areas on the map. The ability to fast travel and save from anywhere, rather than having to cross the map to get to a save location would have been more satisfying. It also would have been cool to zoom in/out on the map, rather than just seeing a local overview, to see relative location and make it easier for navigation.
Ultimately, I won't give it a thumbs up. Could have been better.

One of the most based games you've never heard of.

The junked up prisoners, have some pretty random but hilarious voicelines. Parkour was nice, "Brother 1" who speaks to you over the walkie talkie really sounds like one of those conspiracy fanatics.

half the bosses are horrifying
enough said
10/10

I love the open world aspect of this game. It's nothing I haven't played before but I don't get bored of the different flavors of the genre. I had hoped for a more meaningful story line but I guess the positives outweigh the negatives. Would def recommend to someone who loves these types of games.

I wound not recommend this game because it feels like abandondware , dont know what happened with the development of is game but the demo was good ,but this has been abandon

I hold a lot of nostalgia for this game since I first played it back in 2020, when I had much more time to analyze and think harder on games (since I really couldn't do much else). I really quite like the game but I can understand the negative reviews. The graphics are a bit poor at times, specifically some of the texturing on ceilings and small details, but that doesn't really matter to me since the world feels alive. It's fairly small and contained when compared to other, bigger-budget open worlds, but it has more of a quality over quantity feel to it. The sense of progression (story and game-play wise) in the first hour is amazing. The notes actually matter to the story / side-stories and the environmental storytelling in some areas is good. The notes aren't overly long either. The free-running feels great, and this goes for the general movement as well. The animations and sound design for your movement and hits can be underwhelming though. While on the topic of sound design, the world noises and ambience is good, but the sounds that come from an animal you just killed can border on screechy at times and it doesn't help that one of the dying sounds for the goats sounds like it was being recorded in a tin can. I'll probably add more notes to this review later since I just started a new playthrough yesterday.

I feel like the reviews for this game are all lies. it's a very basic game. Not much story.

Großartiges Spiel mit unerwarteten Schwierigkeiten.

VERY good game with amazing story and endings the platinum was even more fun 11/10
