This is honestly one of my favourite games of all time. I played it when it came out in the 90s and I don't remember ever finishing it, certainly not without cheating. I am blown away by the beauty of the aesthetic and maturity of the story, particularly compared to the rest of the franchise. A stunning, timeless game. I defy the reader to name me a better game by Activision. I'm begging someone, anyone, please upscale this, but when you do, keep the original video sequences the same. <3

As some others have commented, I also had to request a refund. Sound glitches a lot, and mouse panning is too fast. Extremely difficult to play, almost impossible.
Couldn't get to settings menu to save, panning moves way too fast, it doesn't have full screen modes. It really is a bummer to not recommend it because this is one of my all time favorite games from the mid 90's era. I'd ask for a refund if I hadn't gotten it at rock bottom pricing. It would be great if the issues could get fixed.
If you need to slow down your processor, you can lower the TDP to 15W in the motherboard BIOS. Run also a CPU intensive program at the same time to further slow the CPU

Outside of Riven, and maybe few other Myst series games, this is one of the best. Old, but a true masterpiece. Highly recommend.
