pretty short and pretty boring - plus, the story is not particularly child-friendly. You see the father near death and although he recovers, you don't see him interacting in good health. The mother is missing and never shows up. Maybe life can bring these things, but that's no reason to have the whole story of the game hang on them.
Entertainment value is far far less than the price.
I certainly didn't experience any graphic issues (playing it on my 2011 MBP with 1 GB ATI) with all settings maxed. Game is excellent, helps if you are a fan of the franchise or the genre. Only gripe would be that the keyboard decides to freeze some times (on launching the game) and you need to restart the game several times (until the keyboard is recognised - a hit or miss really).
I hope they release Revelations for Mac, I might have to dual boot just to play that game.
Good atmosphere, you feel like youre in the Legend.
Thats about the only good thing I have to say about this game. After about 2 hours with this game I find myself really annoyed.
The fighting system doesnt work because it requires direct control over your teammembers, so being several doesnt add an advantage. It rather increases the chance of losing team members.
The camp where you prepare for new missions drives me crazy, because teammates dont regen their hp while being there. They can be put to work on crafting arrows, gathering herbs for healing or apples for distraction, without really making any of them when youre on a mission. Feels like accomplishing something in there is merely random.
Sum up: the game has tried to do something that it has failed at. Most of the systems of the gameplay really falls through. I do not recommend this game at this moment.
This game was hours of fun and with a price point of under 10 bucks you really can't go wrong. My only concern is the same problem that plaqued the PC version of the game, once you complete the "Great Train Race" level (which is unfortunately the final level) the game freezes and becomes unplayable. You are able to quit out of the game but upon reloading the game you end up with a black screen. Very disappointing after you spend hours (or days in my case) in hopes of completing the game. All in all, it was fun while it lasted.
The story is pretty straightforward, supports the play. Really fun because the story unfolds nicely and the challenges are varied. Plus, the puzzles flow - they fit the story, whereas in some games the challenges just seem arbitrary. Took me hours to complete, well worth the price. Very pleased with this one.
Lots of fun, interesting and interwoven tasks, nicely drawn settings. The story is melodramatic, but it anchors the game play nicely. One of the few games of this sort that I might play again. Not overly challenging but pretty entertaining.
Very easy and short game - mildly entertaining. Nice settings but overall just a shadow of the best games. They changed the story but did not improve it.
It's beautiful, and it's challenging. Lots of fun. Cool graphics. Occasionally you need to repeat a level. As others have said, a couple of the final levels amp up the time pressure. Definitely easier with a mouse. Played it all the way through twice when I first got it, and return to it periodically. Nicely done.
The music is wonderful, and the solitaire hands are dealt with a low-key flourish. It's all very beautiful and lush. The game itself is easy but not boringly so. As others have said, skip the story. It's nasty and poorly written. One cool feature is that you can devise your own challenges once you've finished the main story.
A vividly beautiful, gorgeously rendered, cinegraphic triumph. Haunting dialogue with great voice acting. I could feel the emotion in the actress' voice. A great piece of original work! Highly recommended!
