It abandons traditional gameplay, focusing only on exploration and story telling. What does this unique title bring to the table? Was it really worthy of a full game release? Lets find out.

Look like something worth checking out for the visuals. The lighting looks amazing!

If that's your reason for getting it then you'll be disappointed. The caverns look really impressive with forced SSAO, but the rest of it looks a bit dated. I've seen amazing looking islands in Crysis already, so this is a bit of a downgrade in visual quality.
