Picked up this game tonight on sale for just under $7. I played for 5 hours and completed it. I couldn't put it down! If I had to sum this up in one sentence: A jumping puzzle, platformer with minor puzzles to solve along the way and a fairly interesting story. The music accompanied the atmosphere perfectly, graphics aren't all that fancy but get the job done. Would love to see this game redone with better graphics and visuals! My only complaint is the controls can be hard to handle in certain situations (when you jump, you keep moving forward until you hit something; which means you need to plan each jump carefully). But there were only a few jumps where I needed more than one more try to make, and it never took me more than 3 tries. (hint: Sometimes there is an easier path to take).

The story is rather strange. But, considering you're on another planet I guess anything is possible. But it was interesting enough to compell me to want more. There were 2 maybe 3 areas where I wasn't sure where to go and it took me a bit of running around to figure it out. (hint: In the volcanic area, look in every direction and make sure you've gone down every path... you'll get out eventually).

All in all, this game was well worth the sale price I paid (probably not so much the regular price due to only being 5 hours (for me anyway) to complete. But definitely glad I bought it. Replay value is probably nil since once you've completed it and know the story, it won't interest you to go through it again - not immediately anyway.

I'd give this 4 out of 5 stars. Grab it now if it's still on sale. It's worth the few bucks to kill 5 hours. :)
