Blade Runner

Never thought this day would come, after years and years writing on several forums, including GOG, asking, demanding, praying for a chance to play it on modern computers. Long are the days of some play with "not so legal" copies with several workarounds and tech-wiz settings, only to hear again THAT music, and living in THAT world. I was fortunate enough to "live" that film at the cinema at a very young age... you know, you can't bring a toddler at the movies and let him see a true MASTERPIECE like that! One can grow passionate on Science Fiction and good movies, so it is very rare to find movies of that magnitude. Damn you Ford and damn you Scott! Or should I say damn you Westwood Studios for bringing to the PC world such a masterpiece of movie trasposition? I want to personally thank both GOG and Westwood Studios Inc. for doing such a Christmas miracle, the miracle of bringing back to our society such a masterpiece of gaming, to be known to old and new generations of gamers! What are you waiting for? Go buy this game, or "all these things will be lost like tears in rain"...

GOG just made the christmas list for hundreds of thousands of people. For Blade Runner fans this is a joy to experience. The graphics are faithfull to the source material, the sound although not official is 99% spot on, the gameplay is a bit lackluster but varied enough to keep you engaged. Its not new to almost everyone, its a BladeRunner Story with some twists, voxels and point & click style. Instabuy.

So pleased to see this now available on GOG. I had the original game on disks, then CDs and am so looking forward to playing it again. I remember when playing it last about 15 years ago, afterwards i was going to work in the city on a rainy day and it felt like i was still in the game. It's so well constructed and characterised, and a worthy game for one of the greatest films ever made. I'm really pleased to see from all the comments how so many other people loved the game as much as i did. and i even thought the shooting mecahnic was ok :) Christmas has come early!

I bought this game on release as a teenager, because I was a huge fan of the movie. The game absolutely blew me away. "Ahead of its time" is a very cliche thing to say, but this game was absolutely ahead of its time, and in some aspects, ahead of the machine I had running it at the time. THE GOOD: The game is exactly how I remember it. It also runs well. No crashes or issues. Still the same great PC game I remember and loved. THE BAD: The graphics are very dated. It would be nice to get a remastered version in the future, which I will absolutely buy as well. But for me, gameplay > graphics. I don't mind at all, but some might.

I was excited to see this finally in the catalog. I played this back when it first came out and felt it was underrated back then. The graphics still please the eye and draw you in if you are fan of Blade Runner and the like or any adventure games. Thank you GOG for not giving up on fan requests. I just read an article from PC Gamer about the effort it took to bring this game back and how the code was lost and those who worked on the code and rights for years until it was ready for release again. Please look up the story, buy it, and enjoy this little gem.
