How it feels
A globe-trotting, story-rich adventure where you methodically uncover clues and solve puzzles while navigating low-stakes danger and occasional light humour.

What players say
Players are split on this 3D transition for the series. Many love the characters and nostalgic feel, but the game relies on crate pushing and stealth sequences instead of puzzles, and its controls feel clumsy. Deaths force you to rewatch unskippable cutscenes.
