There sure are a lot of nay-sayers for this game, but implore you not to listen to them. I've beaten this game numerous times and it's not as hard as people are implying. Yes, you do die a lot, but you're supposed to. Death is part of the game. That's why every death gets its own animation, and most of them are voice-acted! Yes, there are limited lives, but that's what re-loading your save is for (and you should be saving often). Experimenting with scenes that can either kill you or cost you items should be your goal, not something you avoid. But apart from that, everything else in this game is great. The fully-voiced, animated cutscenes that accompany every single area, a gorgeous leitmotif-style soundtrack, and a classic fantasy feel that's sure to give some Lord of the Rings or D&D vibes. This is like a point-and-click adventure version of Dragon's Lair. My only gripe with the game is that some of the voices are hard to understand, but it's a really old game, so that's to be expected.
