How it feels

A meticulous, isolated trek through ancient ruins and underwater caverns, where every jump and puzzle demands careful observation and precise control.

What players say

Players call it the best of the Legend trilogy, praising the refined platforming and how the graphics still look good. But the PC port has persistent bugs, with crashes during cutscenes and a puzzle in Southern Mexico that can become impossible to complete. Players also note the DLCs are unavailable.
