Just as everyone else says. It takes about 3-4 hours to finish this title depending on your pace. It is very much linear, but this isn't the type of game where exploration is at the forefront. Its about the story and personally for myself it was about the nature of the main characters.

Generally I believe Edward is far more layered than what people take him for and its his condition that pretty much makes the game for me. If you know what his condition is it adds a deeper layer of depth to the story and one that can lead to something more if they decide to actually revisit this character in the future as teased after the credits.

So when you play this game really take into account the personality of the two characters involved. What those personalities mean in relation to his condition and everything happening around him. Draw on the information given to you about what's fact and what is fiction. In my case that made it far more enjoyable then thinking of him as just some basic tortured soul with an obsession.

In many cases sometimes its how your thoughts are going into a game and if your the type of person who actually would be interested in it. This is a game in which your own personal conclusions and thoughts along everything being shown to you and revealed is going to decide whether its going to be a good game and in my case I was fortunate that it was.

Just as when Morpheus offered the pills to Neo. Think about this game as if Neo had taken both those pills -no water- and just ride that wave.
