In a city where communications are closely monitored, Faith works as a Runner, carrying sensitive messages beyond official channels. When her sister is framed for a crime, Faith is drawn into the pursuit and must navigate a dangerous city.
Play from a first-person perspective as Faith runs through rooftops, buildings, streets, and other urban spaces. The chapter-based levels focus on reaching a destination while chaining jumps, wall-runs, slides, vaults, and climbs to keep moving through chases and platforming challenges.
Runner Vision highlights useful routes and objects in the environment, while a reaction-time ability slows events to give you a moment to plan. Faith can also fight, disarm opponents, and use weapons, though evasion and movement are central to getting through the levels.
Supplied reviews often praise the momentum-driven parkour, especially the satisfaction of linking jumps and wall-runs into a smooth escape. Players also regularly appreciate the clean, colorful city design, atmospheric soundtrack, and level layouts built around movement. Some note that combat interrupts the flow and that finding routes or landing moves can be frustrating.
