    Uninspiring history, horrible camera, clunky controls, shallow design, repetitive gameplay. Horrible game in all aspect.

    WORST. BOSS. EVER.

    Visual design is off, telegraphing is off, the fight is set in the wrong location, there's not enough information regarding what to do, chasing him at the start is so snoringly boring, heads move WAY too much, down time is WAY WAY WAY WAY too low such that when you have to reposition to hit the guy hes already back up. This fight is extremely slow paced and excruciatingly tedious.

    Delete that boss fight from the game and you have a 10/10 game.

    Controls are **** Story is **** Literally its all garbage. Friendly reminder that Mass Effect: Andromeda is coming out on March 21, a superior game in every way.

    This game is such a mixed bag. Graphically it's ok, not great but not bad. It looks like a port. The storyline is a bit so so and is disjointed in parts. Kat drops into this world, has no idea how she got there and how she got her powers but this is instantly forgotten because she feels an unexplained urge to save the people of the town from the nevi. Again, there is very littleThis game is such a mixed bag. Graphically it's ok, not great but not bad. It looks like a port. The storyline is a bit so so and is disjointed in parts. Kat drops into this world, has no idea how she got there and how she got her powers but this is instantly forgotten because she feels an unexplained urge to save the people of the town from the nevi. Again, there is very little explanation as to why they are there and how they are there. Kat also seems very concerned about getting a boyfriend rather than figuring out why and how she can float.

    The controls are a complete mess. This was always going to be hard given the nature of the game but they are terrible. She randomly flies off surfaces which throws you halfway across the world during a fight or worse during the time trial challenges. The camera cannot keep up with her and the idea that every surface can be a floor. Too many times I have been left with FIFA like anger at how poorly the camera behaves during key moments and how this throws her off course.

    Motion controls are on...why? and these can't be changed. They can be turned down but as I figured out they are never fully off as the camera for the map will always rotate.

    It's ok, wouldn't recommend it and I don't understand the fuss everyone has about this game and the character. She means well but is portrayed in an overly JRPG way. Why write her to be independent and strong at times if she is going to be sad and hurt that a boy doesn't like her. The game is confused.

    This makeover of the 2012 original is worth playing, even for current owners of this essential Vita release. In spite of the somewhat simple gameplay, manipulating gravity is quite liberating.

    An excellent crossover between platformer and sandbox game. [March 2016]

    It’s the game hardly anybody played, remade in such a way as to demand every respectable gamer's attention. Take the plunge. [April 2016, p70]
