The first thing we noticed about Warp, a new stealth-based puzzle game for XBLA, PSN and PC, was the blood. Our protagonist, seemingly nothing but an adorable orange blob with eyes, was trying to escape a top-secret laboratory. He teleported past a wall, crawled through an air duct, snuck behind an unsuspecting scientist, and then… suddenly possessed the body of said scientist and violently exploded it into a ghastly puddle of dripping red guts.

Whoa. We said this was a cute, downloadable puzzle game, right? It is, and to see how human combustion – as well as ghost decoys, time-space shifts and cannonball corpses – can work as a part of that cerebral genre, watch our video preview of Warp below.
