Did you play the TCB demo? The 3.1 one (which includes more than the 3.0 demo)?

If you did, what did you think of it? If you didn't, I suggest you do since it's free and it will help you decide.

The demo is representing the real thing rather well.

The structure of TCB is, more or less, alternate plot-driven sections and puzzle-driven sections. The demo starts with the plot and ends with the puzzles, and after that the pattern more or less repeats itself, though the puzzle sections get longer relative to the plot at some point. If you liked the demo, then I think you should buy the full game. If you didn't like the demo, maybe you will still like the full game, depending on exactly what you didn't like about it.

Yeah, I think we're actually planning to work with Akella to do that sometime soon.
