This review contains spoilers

A story that is an ode to the beauty of the information age and the democratization of knowledge sharing that came with it, but also a forewarning of the profound artifice that would come along with the digital age.

Even that is an extreme simplification of this game though, because this game still has so much more to say. About individualism, the nature of a person's legacy, about regret and the repetition of history. The story bursts from the textual to the meta-textual in such a mind-bending and thought-provoking fashion that it gives whiplash. The good kind.

I'm not the greatest story analyst but even i feel like I could go on and on until this becomes an essay. I haven't even mentioned the flawless stealth gameplay that is simultaneously pristine and daring. Basically, I'm just trying to say that the game is good.
