A perfect remaster of a classic game. A compelling story with some very memorable characters.

You really won't regret picking this one up if you enjoyed the original, or if you've never played before. S+

I could play the game and enjoy it. Doing the puzzles mostly completely done. That is some sort of record. Generally speaking I am not very good at theses type of things. Nigel
