This game is bad. The beginning of this game is bad: you spend ten minutes wandering around listening to a non-stop stream of blather before you even reach your first puzzle, unless standing on a box counts as a puzzle, which it doesn't. The pacing of this game is bad: the six hours I spent beating it felt like fifteen. The writing in this game is bad: John de Lancie spends almost literally every moment cracking bons mots that flunked out of either Meme University or Dad Joke Night School. The gameplay of this game is bad: stacking crates and first-person jumping puzzles are all you get, period, and the designers weren't clever enough to ever keep you from noticing. The design of this game is bad: if you're making a puzzle game and you repeatedly need to have a voice actor point out level features ("Look up, the switch is up there!"), you have failed. The ending of this game is bad: you cross a pit, John de Lancie verbally smirks at you some more, and then you hear a terrible song, because this game JUST CAN'T KEEP ITSELF from failing at literally everything Portal did right five years earlier. This game is bad.
