I didn't mind the action sequences, or the stealth parts, and even the box puzzles didn't get tedious until rather late in the game, I was rather fond of the bright and colourful graphics, the controls didn't work too bad, but... BUT the plot was terrible, both the clichéd story (which kept getting worse as it progressed), and the bad pacing (alternating between long gameplay sections and sudden 'ok, let's move the plot forward' scenes). And it took itself far too seriously, which was not a wise move on Revolution's part, as Charles Cecil obviously lacks the writing skills for doing completely serious stuff.
