This game has the ingenuity that a lot of other games are lacking. The graphics are simple yet excellent, and the foray into this little world show enough background to make it intriguing but not so much that it is disorienting or annoying.

The 'special effects' the game has are a little alarming but harmless, and are cleverly used. I expect that some other games may try and follow suit. The game is really only a one-shot (they weren't kidding), so make sure that you make the gameplay worth it. I found this a little irritating, my pc decided to restart to load some updates, the game crashed, and it gave me the "You Killed Niko" pop-up, which was upsetting. Redownloading the game or unzipping the same file won't let you play the game again after he is killed, the only way to replay is to open it again on another computer or to restore your computer to before you played the game.

It seems that either a few (very few, like one or two) features seems to be different when you play the game again/play it again on OSX, such as your interaction with the entity and your interaction with George.

The puzzles are not particularly challenging (there are very few puzzles), and it was thoughtful of the gamemakers to add the fast-travel option and the boots, given all the walking Niko does. I was worried about having to play the entire game in a single go, but there are beds where you can pause your progress as Niko sleeps.

Overall, a nice game. I only wish it were longer, then perhaps some more challenging puzzles could be added.
