The controls for the game are your standard WASD for movement and E to pick up a weapon and R to reload the same weapon. One of the nice features of the game is the option to run using your SHIFT key and a direction key. The mouse uses the standard left and right button for fire primary weapon and zoom/aim with the right mouse button.

The soundtrack for the game is eerie as it lilts along in the background, seemingly lulling you to sleep when suddenly loud crescendo’s wake you from your slumber and place you in a crash of vibrant sound. The audio quality is excellent and the sounds that characters make and the sounds of the weapons are all very realistic.

In all, Zeno Clash is poised to be a unique gaming experience. With nominal hardware requirements of any recent Microsoft OS and 1 GB of RAM on a P4 3.0 GHZ computer the game will run very well on most platforms. I ran the game while pulling down files in the background on a 2.8 GHZ computer and notice no lag in gameplay at all. So for a list price of $20 US this game will be worth a look when it arrive in the Spring of 2009.
