It’s also far too easy to accidentally use special items like bombs, which is especially annoying since they’re in limited quantity, and it’s possible to find yourself in unwinnable situations.Īdditional items include Hornet Bombs, which can be controlled remotely to destroy things in remote locations – usually shield generators – and Levitators, dorky-looking devices that let you reach higher areas.

You also cannot run or jump with the gun equipped. You can switch between “unarmed” and “armed” modes at the hit of a button, but each mode has completely different control schemes – the general “action” button is used to either run or shoot your gun, case depending. It is, however, hampered by its limited input. It also inherited its sluggish, awkward control scheme, although to be fair, it’s also a bit tighter and more responsive.

Much of the game also revolves around platforming – that is to say, jumping, climbing, leaping, hanging on ledges…basically, the same thing as Prince of Persia.
