Even if it is not without flaws: I havent had so much fun with a game since a long time! I dont even notice that it is supposed to be "indie". Its a very original and clever strategy/Rpg-Hybrid: Highly recommended!
I bought it after release and couldnt stop playing. Its pretty unique and the dark humor is supported great by the incredible art design. It not only resembles Pikmin in some kind of way, but also games like legend of zelda - in the world you can pass certain points only if you got new powers that are necessary to use there. All in all it was a great experience playing through it (i actually finished it three times) and the first one is a lot better than the second one, which is also good, but incredibly linear. Highly recommended, worth the money!
I never heard of the game before I found it on Gog. Normally im not so much into adventure games anymore (like i used to be in the early lucasarts days) but deceided to buy it because of its promising themes and the incredible good reviews it got here. I have to say: It is one of the most unique and amazing games I came across for a long time. Even if youre no adventure fan you have to check it out. There are few Video Games that deserve to be called works of art (Planescape Torment and System Shock are amongst them, just to name tow), but this game has definitely be included in such a list. I have rarely played a game that takes its characters so serious and explores its difficult and dark themes so rigiously. Not only highly recommened - you HAVE to play it!
