Det er nok det mest elendige spil, Sierra har præsteret. Det er for
resten lavet af Roberta Williams (King's Quest-serien) og består af SYV
CD'er...
Her er en anmeldelse:
Technical Marvel, Gaming Disaster
The Good:
The video capture was mind-blowing at the time. Pre-render backgrounds
were decent, if somewhat out of place with the live-action. The music was
fantastic. An original score, featuring a huge choir at many points,
created the overall feel of the game.
The Bad:
The violence was more disgusting than scary. Scenes of torture-killings
detracted from the macabre feeling Williams seemed to be going for. The
point and click game design made the game to easy (as did the 'hint
master' character). The 7-disc bundle was a red-herring in terms of game
length -- multiple disc merely prevent constant switching for the various
video sequences.
The Bottom Line:
Robert Williams, the creator of the King's Quest Series and designed for
Phantasmagoria, promised a game where gaming quality would not be
sacrificed to support the new video-capture marvel that would be here new
series. Too bad she couldn't deliver. Rather than top rate horror
adventure, Sierra gave us a pretty-to-look-at, boring-to-play disaster.
The acting was sub-par, the puzzles were insultingly simple for any
gamer, and the overall 7-disc experience was over in a matter of hours.
Truly the beginning of the end for the Sierra empire.
