Ken Follett’s The Pillars of the Earth

An awkward but faithful adaptation

I think the book is the superior experience, but wow it was so fun to see the characters and world be realized and come to life like this. The game can often flounder and put you off with strange pauses in dialogue, point and click adventure leaps of logic and missing or bugged animations. But when it is at its best, the music, the art and the voice acting really step it up to produce an exceptionally striking narrative. If only momentarily. I wish the game had commited more to the characters inner feelings and lives, that's where it really shined for me. Definitely a must recommend for any fans of the source material. But if you're not already a fan of the book I'd wait for a sale. The game could've been a lot more competently made, but I think the devs must've been huge fans of the book to really nail the spirit of the source material like this.
