The Journeyman Project 1: Pegasus Prime

Guys, I would give it 5 star and agree with all the comments below except - the game has a serious bug and I can't continue. I have tried it on both Mac and PC. It's a fantastic and fun game - the maze in the Mars Colony is seriously annoying, it seems the authors made this more difficult than the original. When I finally made my way through after many attempts, I cannot access the airlock which allows the next step. Is this a bug? I tried everything, made my way through the buckets and the annoying maze and now cannot get through the airlock? Does anyone have any advice, there don't seem to be any forums for this one.

For one all the fmv sequences are out of sync with the audio. When I say out of sync, I meant a 5+ second lag between the video on the screen and the audio. Considering how many scenes are rendered through the video sequences this gets annoying really fast. The acting is actually pretty decent and the story while predictable is interesting enough. The music and atmosphere is pretty solid. The puzzles are logical and for the most part fun to solve (and i mean FOR THE MOST PART) The game pretty much grinds to a halt once to get to the missile silo puzzle near the end of the game. This puzzle is just broken and makes a game that was easy game up to this point become a frustrating nightmare. Apparently in this universe Maryland is located just below Germany for some reason despite the fact that North America is entirely intact. Its illogical pixel hunting at its worst with a hard time limit so you can't even really get acclimated with the puzzles bizarre geography. This was the straw that broke the camels back for me. The first two thirds of this game were enjoyable despite the technical flaws but the final big puzzle is just a big poorly programmed f-you to the face. Only purchase this game if your a die-hard fan of the series. Everyone else, stay far away.

I remember playing The Journeyman Project Turbo when I was growing up and always wanted to play this but couldn't because I didn't have a Mac. It totally lives up to my expectations and is a great game.

Now I'm able to complete my full Journeyman Project collection, even if GOG doesn't offer the DOS original or the Turbo! edition. This one is still amazing for an adventure game.

I played JMP: Turbo! on my old Windows 95 PC, and it was by far one of my favorite games. The whole trilogy is great, albeit a little cheesy at times, but the gameplay and puzzles are phenomenal. JMP3 is my favorite, but this takes second place for me. This is a must-play game!
