Doobs, I am having tremendous fun with this.....albeit it only a single player game. The story is great, you are Raz (Razputin) a psychonaut in training. You play in both the real world and the psychic world. There is a lot of very subtle humour throughout the game i.e. clearing out mental baggage, cleaning out cobwebs etc. It comes down to basically being a great platform game. I have just completed my marksmanship training and am now off to my levitation training.

It is clever, original and something completely different.

Stoke, if you have either a game pad or joystick enabled, disable them first otherwise the world just keeps spinning around and around.....

Okay ... played the demo ... took 45 minutes ot complete the first level [only level in the demo] .. it's easy peasy and not all that interesting.

Okay ... more detail
- your character runs in front of you and you swing the camera around behind him and he changes direction appropriately.
- you can fall about 5 storeys without damage, you can double jump.
- you can really hit stuff damn hard.

It's interesting in it's plut but it's still just a 3d packman puzzle game where you collect stuff while using some skill to collect stuff while talking to people to collect stuff. At least they all talk and there's no reading.

/nice, but at R300 - me gives it a skip.

e started playing last night. It's quite cute. Nice to play something on the PC that's not an RTS or FPS for a change.

Phew, how's the game going Fivel?

We're up to the lungfish. I nearly threw my 360 controller out the window trying to do the "tank" mission :$ figured out the fish purely by accident!
