About
Beyond Good & Evil is an action-adventure game with elements of puzzle-solving and stealth-based games. The player controls the protagonist, Jade, from a third-person perspective. Jade can run, move stealthily, jump over obstacles and pits, climb ladders, push or bash doors and objects, and flatten herself against walls. As Jade, the player investigates a number of installations in search of the truth about a war with an alien threat.
What players say
A Zelda-like adventure carried by its rich world, charismatic cast and heartfelt story rather than its merely-serviceable mechanics; the textbook cult classic, adored and considered underrated despite flopping at launch.
