Nostalgic...
About ten years ago, I remembered seeing this game played on a cousins PC. At the time, I was wowed by it. The then, I left the house and never saw or heard of it again. Until now.
At first glance, the game appears to have aged very poorly, and is complex to the point of being overwhelming, but after playing for about 20 minutes, the whole system will start to come together. And than you can get started.
How is it? AMAZING. THE WHOLE THING PLAYS OUT IN REAL TIME WITH GOD KNOWS HOW MANY DIFFERENT ENDINGS, AND TWISTS ALONG THE WAY, AND ITS NUTS.
Literally every decision you make has weight to it. Thats not something you can say about most modern games, putting this in its own league.
Youve never played anything like this game. And thats a shame, because we could all do with more of this.
