❤ Parkour-Inspired Gameplay

The game's core mechanic revolves around executing a wide variety of parkour techniques, including "Kong Vaults," "Pharaoh Climbs," "Rail Split - Vaults," and "Vertical Wall Runs." Players must master these moves and chain them together seamlessly to traverse environments filled with obstacles and challenges. Reviewers praise the game's ability to capture the fluidity and philosophy of parkour, with one stating that it represents free-running better than any other game.

❤ Gameplay Modes and Progression

The game offers several gameplay modes, such as "Race," "Trick," and "Target Collect," which allow players to compete against the clock, showcase their skills, or complete objective-based challenges. As players progress through the game's 10 levels across 3 distinct zones, they can unlock new characters, clothing, tricks, and music, further expanding their customization options and expression.

❤ Control and Camera Challenges

Some reviewers have noted issues with the game's controls and camera system. The close-third-person camera can make it difficult to line up jumps and see ahead, requiring players to manually adjust the camera, a slow process. Additionally, the keyboard and mouse controls are less intuitive than using a controller. Despite these challenges, many players have expressed that the gameplay is highly enjoyable once the controls are mastered, with one reviewer stating that "once you get the hang of things it can be very, very fun to chain tricks and free flow across improvised routes."

❤ Soundtrack and Authenticity

The game's soundtrack, composed primarily by Martin Iveson, is widely praised as a highlight of the experience, with reviewers describing it as a "great soundtrack" that "fits the game's aesthetic perfectly." The inclusion of parkour pioneer Sébastien Foucan as a mentor character also adds to the game's authenticity and appeal for fans of the sport, though the Steam version has rerecorded dialogue and a name change for this character.
