The Artful Escape

There are huge stretches in between these fights that will leave you wanting for something other than walking to the right. This is somewhat remedied by the “shred” button, where you can play your guitar as you walk everywhere, but fun as that may be, it’s ultimately not a sufficient replacement for proper gameplay. The adventure does ultimately end up being a worthwhile one, with interesting characters, an incredible art style, and great music. But if there were more to the gameplay, the game – and its world – could have offered so much more.
