interesting
the story is dark and horrible in a good way, but mechanics are old and unreliable.

Difficult but worth the effort
The game is difficult because it's easy to die and jeopardise the endings. But the sci-fi story is intriguing. That's why I played the game with the walkthrough so it was an interactive movie experience for me. Now I need to find a copy of the book of the same name.

Pure Science Fiction
I haven't read the story, but when I saw that there is a game about it I wanted really to experience it before put my hands on the original text. It's really a thing, the art, the voice acting, the text, I think is really hard for that a game with 30 years old to have this much impact and to preserve a solid narrative like this one. Is really a must to live experience. I want to say that obviously it is an GoG, as an old game I recommend to look for some guide, but only when you have tried everything in your possibilities to advance in the stories, as a practice of patience.
