How it feels

A frantic, first-person parkour gauntlet through lethal sci-fi corridors, where the pressure mounts as traps multiply and the soundtrack pulses.

What players say

Players are split on this runner, some find the difficulty rewarding as they master the movement and puzzles, while others call the controls unfair and the learning curve a cliff. A few mention motion sickness, and several note that level content begins repeating after an hour or two.
