What players say

89% of 46,187 reviews are positive · 91% of 189 in the last 30 days

Players most often praise the level design, freedom of approach, and distinct powers of the two protagonists. The main complaint is that the game may not launch on systems combining AMD CPUs with Nvidia graphics without an unofficial fix; others report severe frame-rate drops and crashes.
