They're the gross dos versions. Bad sound track. Bad sound effects. I do not understand why we can't just license the Amiga versions and pack in a pre-configured version of UAE or something, instead of crusty dos games. These are the worst ways to play these games.
From the team that brought you Deus Ex, comes a game that's...unique. I've never played anything quite like Anachronox before. That's not a bad thing. The gameplay feels a bit wonky at times, mostly suffering to some choppy camera work on scripted scenes, but if you can get past that and the dated graphics, you're in for a good time. What I found to really stand out was the writing. The background information given, the character dialog, everything is coated with a thick layer of cheese and general silliness. Anachronox is a great game because of this, and anybody who appreciates these sorts of things will enjoy this game.
