It&#8217;s a gorgeous Metroidvania that is equal parts breathtaking to look at and exciting to play. You control an android grappling, wall-jumping, and fighting against tough enemies (and even tougher bosses) throughout a mysterious spaceship. &#8220;[<em>Mio]<\/em> is committed to the act of exploration to a surgical degree. To survive its ship full of rogue machines is to become a digital cadaver of a gorgeously intricate digital world,&#8221; Polygon wrote in its review.
