Overall a good fast paste shooter with adequit jump and run sections. Combate - while quit simple in nature the combination of all weapons, enemy weaknesses and items give it quit some depth if one wants to such fields. Jump and Run/ puzzels - they are simple but effective, I advice read the texts you are given then everything will be simple. Story - well I do want to know what happens next so that speaks for itself I guess.
The entire feeling the games gives can be condensed in a single phrase: "You don't want to be here" - it is great. I can only repeat the other reviews so far visuals and soundtrack are brilliant. However be warned if gore is not to your taste then you may reconsider. Let me put it into numbers: Visuals: 5.0 out of 5 Sountrack: 5.0 out of 5 Ambientsound: 4.0 out of 5 Gameplay: 5.0 out of 5 Remeber these impressions are very subjectiv. Gameplay: The UI has been reworked a lot compered to the first Stasis. It is very simplistic jet functional. The banter between the charachters and comments on items provides usefull insight and serves as a guideline and atmosphere feature. The riddels 90% of the time vary between simple and avarage (remember subjectiv). There are some hard ones but they are rare and still managable but require some thinking outside of the box.
