The sentiment I've gotten from all negative reviews stems from the games terrible save feature. Theres an easy to use executable program called LBATrainer that allows you to press F7 and save at any point. I didn't make it I just found it when looking for a solution for the problem and it works perfectly for me. When you press F7 it creates a save file in the location you've specified, then you copy that and paste it over the file in your cloud saves folder where you have the game installed. You can do this while the game is running, then you quit, reload and you'll reload exactly where you last pressed F7.
So if that was a big problem for you enjoying the game, problem solved. I have great memories of this game, I still recognize so much, remember so many sound effects, animations, everything. The controls are fine, its not difficult to control twinsen, you just have to think of it less like an action game and more like a point and click adventure except with arrow keys to move around.
Let me get the negative out of the way: yes, running into walls makes you lose health and can frustrate, yes the save system is pretty bad, yes the game is hard, yes ... the game has flaws. I won't pretend it doesn't but the game itself makes up for all of that.
You have graphics that have barely aged, you have brilliant digital music, you have a wonderful atmosphere, an original setting, fun combat, fun puzzles, large areas and, in general, a real classic. This game was very daring at the time and it shows. It's a real adventure and while it's not easy, it's very well worth the effort.
Epic, poignant, epic, funny, epic, memorable and epic
this game is EPIC. Did you catch that?
The premise is epic: you are Twinsen (an ordinary citizen), you have to save your whole world Twinsun, by defeating the ruthles dictator Dr Funfrock, who turned everything into an orwellian nightmare... An orvellian nightmare which looks stunningly cute a pleasing. I don't know what it is about french adventure games. There is always a tyrant, you always have to aid the underground rebellion, and you save the world. Maybe it is a historycal thing? Still, during all this ruckus, the world is stunningly beautiful. Beyond Good and Evil anyone?
The gameworld is epic: you must travel around the whole planet: the Cities, the seas, the underground dungeons, the secret military bases, the hot deserts at the poles, and the icebelt in the middle (Twinsun has two suns. One at each othe poles).
The characters are epic: there i a mildly busy life at every location, and weird creatures you can bump into. Elephant and rodent like humanoids, and Queeches, which are quite normal humanlike beings, just like twinsen. A lot of NPC's have a few funny lines, and I can still remember a lot of them from the top of my head.
The mood is epic: besides the large scale, the music is what makes the game so much larger. I think the main tune is one of the most memorable of all the PC adventures I've ever played. It's up there with the Monkey Island theme. As soon as you see the first menu, the open see, the boat, the little istand, the lighthouse, and you hear this music, calling you to a grand adventure... I just can't describe how excinting it is every time I start up this game!
The gameplay is... um... not very epic :(
Don't get me wrong, in this isometric action-adventure, you have truckloads of foes to destroy, dozens of secrets to reveal, lots and lots of puzzles, so there's no problem with the quantity.
What makes the experience kind of bittersweet, are the controls. This is the Resident Evil kind of control scheme, where you move you character like it's a tank or a turret. VERY annoying, and takes quite a time to get used to it. And in places where you get into isometric, time based jumping puzzles, this steps to another level of all kinds of terrible. That is why it has to be only four stars. Simply, this part of the game is just dated.
On a sidenote: Some also say, that the game is sickeningly cute, and requires a special taste... Screw them! If you have a heart, this game will warm it up. That's it, but thought i need to address it before the final verdict:
This game is EPIC.
I am truly surprised by all the rave reviews this game has gotten. All I can imagine was that they were written by people whose views are clouded by nostalgia.
Playing it for the first time in 2012, it is not a fun experience. Specifically, the major issue is the punishing nature of the game if you die. I consider myself a moderately skilled player at most games, but I have spent at least a couple hours playing this one and I am still at square one.
When you die, this game puts you back to the very beginning. Now I've heard from others that the game does autosave later on, and maybe that is true, but I can say for sure there is no save in the first 25 minutes of gameplay or so.
This wouldn't be so bad if death was easy to avoid. But it is not. In this very early part of the game, the game introduces enemies with super-effective homing missiles that can kill you in one hit. I wish I could avoid these guys, but despite making every effort to do so, there is a sequence where the games forces you to *very* quickly hide from one in a large house. If you cannot find the hiding space, which must be very well hidden, in 10 seconds or so, you are instantly killed.
I really tried to give this game a chance, but I can't keep spending my precious free time playing the same early puzzles over and over again, only to be killed before I reach the mythical autosave. So I would not recommend buying this game unless you love repetition.
Little Big Adventure doesn't allow you to save your game when you want to. If you go off exploring and get captured (which happens quite easily), you end up back in jail and having to escape in the same manner over and over and over again.
Got bored after being captured 20 times and doing the same thing over and over to break out of jail, so I stopped playing the game.
