I remember getting this game for the Sony Playstation the DAY it was released. At my young inexperienced age I asked my dad to buy this for me, because I liked the cover art. Little did I know what frustrations awaited me. I believe if I were to play this again, now; I would have the patience to play through each area. instead of getting frustrated and entering in passwords to skip to specific stages of the game. The only complaint I really have (outside of the pure challenging grind of trial and error) are the controls. Your character will basically moves like a tank. Think Silent Hill or Tomb Raider for instance. If you are a fan of Ian Livingstone and enjoy action-adventure/rpg's I would throwdown $6 on this game. If you enjoy challenging videogames I would still purchase this game. Just wait for it to go on sale.
