The WhatsNext verdict

For Players who enjoy imaginative platform adventures, expressive worlds, and warm, character-driven humor: Raz explores vividly imagined minds, using psychic abilities to navigate, solve problems, and fight through levels shaped by their inhabitants. Tradeoff: The platforming and combat are more approachable than technically demanding, and the adventure follows a mostly linear path.
