Amazing!

This is a must play, everything about is perfect, the style, the sound track, how the game interacts with the PX1 is amazing, the gameplay is great, the puzzle are challenging but not to the point where it’s not fun anymore. This game had a great story that was well explained and incredible. Give this game a try, it doesn’t take long to beat and it’s fun the whole way through.
