To this already volatile mix, there are now more levels, more abilities, more enemy types, more story. And not just more of those first-person fights where you step between slow-motion bullets to punch a shooter, grab his weapon and use it to pick off a sniper, hurl it at another foe, and then jump-punch your way to another enemy.
“MORE,” it reads, and that’s what the game delivers. The blinking red box that greets you each time you boot up the game promises as much. Mind Control Delete at first appears to exist for one reason: to deliver more Superhot. Whereas Superhot subversively riffed on the tenebrous nature of control, Mind Control Delete slyly questions the purpose of extra content and how long a game should or shouldn’t be. Superhot: Mind Control Delete, initially planned as DLC but now releasing as a standalone game that’s bigger than the original, is a brilliant rebuttal to that criticism. When Superhot was released in 2016, much praise was heaped on its novel “time moves when you move” gimmick, though some criticized the game for its brevity.
