Sokal's early work
I bought the game because I wanted to see Sokal's early work, before the excellent Syberia series. The game itself is rather short, it took me around six hours to play through it. The puzzels mainly consist of pixel hunting which can get a bit tedios at times. Most of the time you need to find a certain item and put it somewhere even if not always makes sense to do so. There is almost no character interaction in the game. I did enjoy the story and the visuals, which keeping in mind that the game is more than twenty years old, look pretty decent even today. The ending was a bit disappointing. I will not go into spoilers but the ending cinematic reminded me of something straight out of a Half Life game. I will recomment the game only to fans of Syberia and of Benoit Sokal who are interested to see some of the earlier concepts of his work, some of which made their way into Syberia. However I will recommend buying the game only when it is on sale, because given the lenght of it, it doesn't justify paying the full price. Overall it isn't a bad game, but it falls a little short on some fronts that normally should be the strong points of a point and click adventure game. Nevertheless it made me appreciate how much an improvement over this game is Syberia given the fact that they were released only a couple of years apart from one another, and if you still haven't played it I urge you to do so, you will not be disappointed.
