Blade Runner

I liked it!

The atmosphere is pretty amazing especially considering when it came out. The music fits real well. From my understanding, the locations match the movie pretty accurately. The story is really amazing and was the best part of the game. The graphcis are ok but considering when it came out, that doesn't bother me. I think what makes this not a great game is the typically point and click adverture problems. It leads to frustration at times and boredom at others. Sometimes there is pixel hunting that will prevent you from moving on until you find what you need. Even though you don't know that you are looking for something if that makes sense. You don't always know where you're supposed to go so I spent a lot of time going from the same old locations over and over and talking with the same characters to see if I missed anything. This was repetitive and boring and frustrating. It would have been nice for the character to give you some sore of idea what you needed to do next or where to go. He did do that once or twice later in the game. There was one time where you couldn't proceed to a room because something was stopping you and you needed to find something and give it to a character but why you would need to do this was not clear. Once the item was given, the game let you proceed but gave no indication that the way was free. Sometimes characters wouldn't show up that you needed to progress the story until what appeared to be a random time. So if not by luck going to the same location, I would have been searching other places for a long time. It was things like this that kept it from being a great game. I would get it if you are ok with frustrating puzzles and you are a fan of the film or cyperpunk in general. Not bad but not great.

love it alot

The original game relied on multimedia CD's and was a very ambituous for its time. 3D before 3D game technology really existed. It has many limitations but is extremely atmospheric and captures the world Ridley Scott imagined. This implementation works well and the playing experience is pretty good. But the nostalgia factor is off the charts. It is a story game with several potential outcomes and its outcome changes according to the players choices and perspective as they progress Its not just a shooter, not just a puzzler it is absorbing and a pleasure to visit or revisit.

I have been looking for this game for at least 10 years and it is now available. This game is classic and i can't believe you succeeded in restoring it. Thank you so much. I am going to have a blast.
