As the game progresses you play as both Wesley and Cross, Wesley’s father, and the story behind Wesley’s mother’s death slowly reveals itself. Though this is a promising premise, it’s not really fleshed out strongly enough, and personally, it weakened a lot of the key plot points in the film. And finally, this mystery can only last so long, making this game really, really short.
