An isometric action adventure game with very nice visuals and a good soundtrack. The plot is paper-thin, the movement control scheme is a bizarre semi-tank control style that takes some time to get used to, but once it does it lends itself well enough to the combat and isometric platforming.

I tried to play this as a child and found it unwieldy and difficult. Plus, my brother loudly complained at seeing it because of how it handled perspective. I beat it last week, at time of writing. By the time I was jumping off cliffs and rounding my jumps at the right time to bypass elevator patterns, I felt like I was capable of doing all sorts of great and terrible things. I'm aging and I feel possibilities closing more and more often, but look at what I made myself do this year.

also I sent my brother a clip of me making that jump and he said it made him physically ill, so, that's pretty good

Input lags aside that sometimes is infuriating with jumps, it's a fine action adventure game. Controls could take a little because it's an isometric game, but if you got accostumed to GBA platforms like Spyro and Banjo & Kazooie Grunty's Revenge this is an enjoyable experience.
