Wells is a rather bland, forgettable experience with mediocre gameplay and visuals. At least the price tag is agreeable.

Gravity Rush 2 expands on the uniquely enjoyable gravity shifting gameplay of the original and features a likeable cast of characters that should satisfy fans, despite a few missteps.

While the concept is sound, actually playing SuperHyperCube is like hitting your head against the wall. It's interesting at first, but quickly becomes repetitive and excessively painful. And you're paying big money for it, too.
