More frustrating than magical.
I was lucky enough to encounter LBA2 as a kid, before I ever tried its predecessor. LBA2 is a flawless game - Absolutely one of my Top 3 adventure games of all time - It is a beautifully crafted world with a great story and well laid puzzles. I can not speak highly enough of it. Little Big Adventure (1) is just odd. All the same aesthetics and features are there, the same charming world, but it is just so utterly frustrating to play. Besides the excruciatingly irritating save feature (or lack of) there are just so many weird design choices which seem hell bent on punishing the player. Who ever heard of a game where you can die by running into a wall too many times (a flaw that is noticeably missing from the superior sequel), or in which being cornered by an gun toting enemy means certain death. There are moments in gameplay, when it is simply impossible to get away from the relentless gun fire and so much life is lost for such small encounters with bad guys. I WANT to love this game as much as I truly adore LBA2, but it doesn't seem to want to be loved. When I try to play it, I am always reminded that the balance here is off. The joy of playing is always outweighed by the frustration. I think I said it best before.. This game punishes the player. Skip this, buy the sequel.
