Blade Runner

Santa Caus really exist :) Thank You GOG for my wish. Instant buy...

So, I've had this game on disk for many many years (as well as still have the hint book.) As such, I won't be buying it on GOG but still wanted to put down a review. I've played it a couple times over the years, and it is good. Streamed a complete playthrough on Twitch last year. It's got an interesting premise. I like how it plays concurrently with the movie and how it takes place in (sorta) real time. The different events, situations and endings allow for a bit of replayability. I like that it's not an average point and click game. Now, overall the voice acting is generally kind of bad and the voxel graphics don't really do it any favors these days, but for $10 this is well worth buying. If I recall, my full playthroughs have usually been 2.5-3 hours. I'm sure it would take you a bit longer the first time through. And if you replay it a few times for the differences you'll basically have paid about $1 an hour... if you're into that sorta cost/hours=worth it breakdown. If you want to find it on disk instead for some reason, given the video and screenshots here, there doesn't appear to be any difference between this and the disk version. I'm really glad GOG has been getting more games that have either been caught in licensing limbo or were just never on digital before the GOG versions (Diablo, WC 2, Blade Runner...) I hope we see more of this in the future as it's really good that people have access to these old games again.

I remember the first time I played this, it was a rainy October in 98 and I had only just seen the Directors Cut of the original Blade Runner, while scouting a charity store I found this game in it's EA Classics form, Sadly those discs are lost to time, but the memories of playing this game aren't. The plot instead of being a re-run of the movie happens in parallel, as Ray McCoy you being an investigation into a different set of replicants though you hear about events from the movie as your game progresses. This is a must-own for anyone who is a fan of the movies or adventure games in general, Westwood could have made a bland first person shooter and retold the movies plot poorly, but they put in the effort and made a classic that stands the test of time.

Blade Runner it's an awesome game, you should play it; I thought this game's code was lost but thanks to GOG who managed to retrieve it you can play it once again!

Amazing adventure game with sounds from the movie and storylines that are connected to it. Every cyberpunk fan should get this game.
