This game is terrific on so many levels. The graphics have a really cool artistic flare to them, the animation is very smooth, the gameplay is simple, yet fun, and the story is very entertaining.
I had this game on my Sega Genesis, and I was always impressed by how smooth everything felt. The graphics, the animation, the controls; it felt like it was constructed perfectly.
The gameplay is around teh same as the first Prince of Persia games, as well as the Oddworld games. I have always sort of liked this slow, deliberate style in platformers, but I will admit that it isn't for everyone.
This game is worth whatever price they are selling it for. Considering it's only ten bucks for an awesome game AND a decent soundtrack, I think that is well worth it.
