This game is a masterpiece. A historically accurate, atmospheric, intriguing and interesting masterpiece. But keep in mind that it was made in 1997. The art nouveau style is actually still quite pretty, so the graphics are okay. The problem is back then games used to be hard and actually quite hard to learn the basics. User interface can be problematic, at first. Combined with the nature of the game, real time simulation, prepare to spend time up to an hour feeling lost and confused. After that, it's amazing and definitely worth it. Just don't expect to jump right in. I give it five stars, definitely worth the money here. An unforgettable experience!
