meaning that sometimes there is more than one way to get to an area. Some call this a platform jumper, I suppose you can say that if you keep in mind it's a 360 degree 3D platform jumper. Some of the quests or if you prefer the game term "missions" are significantly difficult, but for the most part aren't too hard for the ones that move you through to the end of the game.
The world you travel is green (mostly) and large. Games 2 & 3 are significantly darker in the plot-line than this game. You must help Jak overcome obstacles and solve quests to protect your world from those that want to control it using the dark eco. a destructive energy liquid/force in the game. You play the part of Jak a sort of hero in training and are accompanied by a ferret like creature (they call an Ottsel) that is your best friend changed by evil dark eco. You can die, but you have unlimited "lives" so you can keep at something until you figure it out. This game while at times a bit violent, is pretty light and fun.
