You certainly don't zanzarah need it to make it through the game. A perfectly serviceable walkthrough already exists online. By the way, the game is released only on DVD format (yay!), so zanzarah if all you have is a CD-ROM player, you are out of luck. I suppose something should be said about the point system. I've never understood the reasoning behind allocating points in a game. Even Gabriel Knight 3: Blood of the Sacred, Blood of the Damned, perhaps one of adventure gaming's finest moments, employs this gimmick. It utterly destroys the immersion factor for me, and for the most part I ignore it as best as I can. Brendel mercifully didn't display points on the game screen, just in the notebook and once at the end of the game. |

but the lackluster gameplay dragged it all down. The puzzles were stale at best, fps more like placeholders for more organic and clever versions. Brendel mentions in the Companion's Forward that the game development was problematic to the point that it fps was nearly shelved. While he didn't go into detail, there was an aura of defeat in this game that was hard to shake. I encountered some technical problems as well on my Athlon AMD XP 1800+, 1.53 GHz, 512 MB, fps ATI 9600XT, XP Pro with Service Pack 2 rig. Every single time I won an arcade sequence, the game crashed to desktop and I could only return by clicking on the bottom screen toolbar. Twice I had to reboot and replay an arcade scene in full to safely get to a place to save. In most of the dialogue sequences, the screen flashed to black for a second before the character began to speak. Once the sequence was completed, the screen jumped back to a static character posed with generic expression. It was like watching technicians milling about at the edge of a stage during a play, sloppy and distracting. |
