Despite the movement issues I encountered (I expect to be addressed in an update) this is a highly enjoyable game that will be easy to spend many hours on without realising just how long.Beholder is a Russian adventure video game about life in a totalitarian police state. Overall: I love this game, if you enjoyed the original this nice new spin will delight you, if you are new to the series, no prior knowladge needed but I highly recommend playing the original also (they can play as standalone). This is however where my only gripe seemed to come with the game, sometimes it was a struggle to make the character move or move faster than a slow stroll and required a couple of flicks of the stick to get myself on my way again, then occasionally the character would freeze in place with the game still active however I was unable to interact or move and had to load up my prior save.
