The game combines elements of first person shooter gameplay, stealth mechanics a-la Metal Gear Solid or Splinter Cell, and a touch of free roaming exploration, even if its world is relatively small compared to say, Skyrim.
Basically, I was constantly looking for games that required little to no twitch based mechanics for the same reasons you mentioned in your article, that being primarily playing everything on a touch screen or touch pad while sitting (or half laying so that I could elevate my ankle) in bed.
