Great.

Black Shades, by the developer of Lugaru, is a weird and good FPS escort mission generator-thing. You're a psychic bodyguard in a randomly generated city filled with pedestrians, with a person in white to protect from assassination. If you kill an innocent or your charge dies, you fail. Here are some things that are possible in this quick game:
  • you project your consciousness a block ahead and identify assassins before they give themselves away.
  • weaponless, you go into slo-mo, wrestle a pistol away from an assassin, shoot him in the head as he lies on the ground, and kill three other would-be assassins
  • you peacefully disarm an assassin and let him go
  • you lose track of your charge and he gets shivved
  • you throw away your sniper rifle, steal a knife from an assassin, and run around knifing bad guys
  • your charge is bitten by a zombie and dies'
  • you shoot your charge out of irritation at his aloofness in a previous life
