Is it still worth playing?
Runic Games' 2017 action adventure, the last game the studio made before it dissolved, set in a science fiction world of bizarre wildlife, overgrown architecture and arcane machinery. It came out for Windows and PlayStation 4, with an enhanced Switch port in 2019. At the start you can reach only a small area, and as you solve puzzles and unlock powers, more of the map opens. Combat is simple and built on four actions, a quick sword attack, a slow punch, a slower charge attack and a roll, with a ground slam and a deployable shield unlocked later. Many of these moves use energy, which recharges slowly. Items found in the world raise your damage, maximum health and maximum energy. Exploration and combat grow together with every power you unlock, and that steady widening still gives the world its pull.
