This aspect basically the only interesting aspect of this game, and all good things about this game end here. The game falls short due to dated visuals, buggy gameplay, and lackluster presentation.

The graphics are notably subpar, resembling a PS3 game, and the storytelling relies on moving stills with voiceovers, contributing to an overall lack of quality presentation. The gameplay, structured as a third-person action experience, suffers from clunky mechanics and various game-breaking bugs, with some issues requiring multiple restarts to address. Despite the promise of altering the narrative through choices, the game struggles to fully capitalize on this unique aspect.
