AUDIO GUIDE

-

You’ll hear the voice of David Shaw-Parker a lot while playing. As narrator, he has enormous amounts of exposition to deliver, and he also offers up stray thoughts as you roam the world. These generally amount to nuggets of fortune-cookie wisdom – “If a story is about you, care for it” – but occasional­ly he’ll get caught up in the action and shout the likes of “Right in the face!” as you land a hit. He’s also responsibl­e for almost every line of dialogue, which is first spoken in gibberish then recounted by the narrator, which draws out some already circuitous writing. Regardless of what he’s saying, though, Shaw-Parker’s tones – like David Attenborou­gh reading a children’s audiobook – make him a pleasant travel companion.
