This is a great game if you are longing for the good old sharpe tounged humor found in the classic lucasarts games. Usually adventures nowadays try to be funny but fail. This one doesn't disappoint! The art style is just fantastic. Great art, animations, music atmosphere. The gameplay is pretty straightforward and there aren't any really tough puzzles, and mostly it is just very basic and obvious item combining. Also, i found the story kinda hard to follow, kinda forced and convoluted towards the end. That being said, there are many great and unique characters which i thoroughly enjoyed listing and talking to - very nice! For 20 bucks(!) a definitive must buy for anyone adventure fan who can do without a brilliant plot.
Are you one of those people who buy old games, think you will replay them, and end up being turned off after an hour at the most? CoP is one of those rare exceptions to that rule for me. It is still so fresh, gameplay and the survival elements are absolutely satisfying. Exploration is heavily rewarded. It's so much fun hunting/saving for better equipment and the atmosphere, while nothing will surpass the first entry to this series, is taking you in deeper and deeper the more you play. And with some mods (hint: get the COMPLETE mod - one dowload, quick install and you're all set) it even looks so damn pretty. GET THIS GAME!
