I cannot praise the story, music and presentation of this game enough. No other game can make me cry like a baby as much as this one does. I won't go into detail about those, because other reviews have already done it. Aside from those things, the gameplay is underwhelming at best if not annoying. You only do 2 things: searching for specific items and solving puzzles. And IMO both things can sometimes get tedious and interrupt the story and, therefore, ruin the overall experience. Another thing is that there's no branching story whatsoever. I'm not saying it should have branching story from a design perspective. My point is that the lack of branching story makes most of the gameplay even more pointless. I think I probably would have enjoyed the story even more if there was less gameplay, or if the whole game was just a straight-up movie.
I loved this game when I was a kid. Thanks a lot for the windows 7 compatible version.
