Review by Kim Robinson on 1st August 2007
From the author of the Lem series, Vertigo is a large arena with room for four or more players (if you can work out how to have that many), sporting great architecture and more than enough ammo to see you through. It's a little hard to find other players in such wide open spaces, but there's plenty of fun to be had in sniffing 'em out.
