About

Mirror's Edge is a first-person platformer (and occasionally shooter) which takes place in an unnamed dystopian city of the future, where life is comfortable and crime-free for most, at the cost of many freedoms and liberties. Faith is a runner - a courier who races across the rooftops illegally delivering messages and packages for those who would prefer that their communications go unmonitored. Faith's sister Kate unwittingly stumbles into some serious trouble, and it's up to Faith to help her out, pursued all the while by a police force intent on keeping certain secrets safe.
