Behind this triumph is the pairing of Fidget’s elemental projectiles and your “dust storm” attack, which allows you to create a whirlwind by rapidly spinning your sword and in turn causing Fidget’s strikes to careen into your enemies over and over again. Once you get the hang of chaining attacks and juggling foes, your combos will easily exceed 1,000 hits, earning you both a satisfied smirk and some bonus experience points.

Outside of a few structural weaknesses, such as the inability to transition between cover, which can be a real hindrance during stealth missions, the controls hold up extremely well.

Thankfully, the game is at its best when taking part in its signature activity: sniping. Your heart rate is shown in the corner of the screen, and when you’re calm you can “empty your lungs,” which slows time and creates an extremely precise firing point. Depending on the difficulty setting you’ll also need to adjust for gravity based on your distance from the target (pro tip: aim high), which can be particularly tough when trying to lead moving targets. Although a little tightening from the close-quarters elements would’ve helped, the controls hold up well in the most critical department.
