    We implore you: read the myth of Sisyphus or snuggle up with the works of Camus instead. Heavy Burden is no way to brush up on either. It’s a mashup of some of the things we hate most in games - escort missions, first-person platforming and cruel failure states - with a half-hearted gesture towards philosophy. Praise Zeus that we only had to push this rock up the mountain once.
