To watch top-notch Parkour performers is an awe-inspiring experience - athletic balance and style, incredible speed, plus acrobatic capabilities most of us mere mortals can only dream about.

To recreate this fluidity on a console is no small task, something Mirror’s Edge successfully achieved when it brought free running into an action context.

Here, Free Running keeps the urban action purely and simply fixed on the tricks and flicks that you’ll learn around the three game environments, from the Urban Jungle to the Docklands and Inner City.

The linear levels prove to be fairly flat, with the Wiimote and nunchuk controls struggling to recreate any connection with the physical reality of the free running world.

Perhaps now better-suited to the motion sensing hardware on other consoles, Free Running needs to make a big leap to start wowing the crowds in the future.
