I don't even know what to say, which hasn't already been said. This is one of the most well written games I have played and I can't stop myself from thinking about it regularly. Now, I haven't played the original version of it and 16 € seems quite steep for a game from 1999. I would recommend getting it when it's on sale. But I don't really understad all the fuss about this being the EE, since you also get the original version with it.
Maybe it's because I normally don't play a lot of click-and-point adventure games, but playing this one was an infuriating experience. The story is well written and a great extention to its source material and the main reason I continued pushing through this nightmare of moon-logic puzzles. I kept soft-locking myself without a guide, which lead me to saving every few minutes, after every bit of progression I managed to do. Suprisingly this game didn't crash on me once. It did bug out frequently, though. I think this game is best experienced watching a walkthrough or with a guide. Solving the puzzles yourself stops feeling rewarding after half an hour and maybe I would have appreciated the symbolism behind them a lot more if I didn't just try combining different items until it worked.
Stop reading reviews and just play the game. It's best experienced completely blind. If you're worried about difficulty, don't. The game accommodates for brainless players like me more than enough to avoid frustration, even as a rougelite. This game is one of the most engaging, fun games I've played in a while. It's a wonderful experience through and through.
