Pretty good point and click

I remember seeing the original GK in the store when I was a kid, however I never played it. It was one of those games that was on the proverbial "list," but I never got around to it. I saw the 20th Anniversary Edition for sale on GOG with good reviews, and thought why not? Im glad I did. First off, it runs fine on a modern machine, as it should as a remake. The graphics and sound were obviosuly updated, but not over the top. I have to admit, the voice actor for GK really hammed up the southern accent, but fortunately he loses a lot of it further in the game. For the most part the puzzles were fairly easy, there were a few though that left me stuped for a while. All in all, this is a very good point and click adventure game.

Great game!

Disclaimer: I didn't play the original, I was probably too young or it wasn't a big thing in my country. I like point-and-click adventures so I bought it, and since I liked it I also bought the sequels. As someone who hasn't played the original, I thought the game was very good - the puzzles are at the right difficulty and they mostly make sense (except *that* one), the background and graphics were great for someone like me who likes retro-looking games, the story was interesting enough, the voice acting was okay, the game was long enough for the (sale) price albeit not really replayable. I don't really like Gabriel but I can live/play with that. If you haven't played the original, I would definitely recommend it for its value as a game in itself.

An intriguing adventure

Well, I have to say that I purchased this game "accidentally", without having ever heard of it (so I had really no expectations), but enjoyed it really a lot. In general, I like the puzzle/graphic adventure genre. This in particular stands out for being at the same time a light-hearted adventure with very mature and fascinating themes, and, most importantly, rooted in the real world. It's also refreshing to see something that spans outside the usual limits of US or Western culture, and this without being trivial; here we have a mixture of religions, spiritual beliefs, languages, countries, mysteries, all tied together in a decidedly captivating way. I think that the game structure, subdivided in days and organized in locations on a map, is genial and greatly helps the immersion in the story. This remake clearly makes gameplay easier (e.g., interactive objects can be highlighted). Overall, I also found the puzzles to be quite easy and straightforward, but this might have been a characteristic of the original version, too. I just found the mime scene rather absurd and too difficult to get: had I been in the developers, I would have changed it. On the other hand, the infamous clock's enigma might be baffling, but has its logic, and in hindsight I appreciated it very much. Don't let you be discouraged by these difficulties. My critics are mostly of two kinds: - the graphics are great, but I found the original sceneries (especially interiors) to be nicer or more appropriate. 3D environments can be lackluster at times, and they are too light and coloured in contrast with the progressively gloomier atmosphere. - The hint systems spoils too much and is bugged. Two levels are too few. The "behind the scenes" also needs to be limited, as it contains too many spoilers. So, a highly, highly recommended game that, despite its occasional naiveté, provides a truly unique and alluring story with a nice gameplay and pleasant puzzles. I can't wait to play the next episodes!!!

Great to be back!

This is a solid and enjoyable adventure game and the remastering of a classic. It's interesting, beautiful and a lot of fun. I'd recommend it to fans of the original as well as new players. People seem to be a bit consumed by nostalgia and were ready to rip into this new version, but the negative feedback is without ground at times. The voice acting is much improved over the original, especially the awful Tim Curry with his broken-down accent. Scenes are beautiful, and although the composition is problematic at times, it doesn't really detract from the experience. There are some glitches, but they are minor.
