A novelty crafted for fans.
The games are superb. All four of them - but we have known it for decades already. What about this particular rendition? Well, it's not for everyone. Newcomers are DEFINITELY better off buying the classic PC releases (heck, Lure of the Temptres and Beneath a Steel Sky have long been freeware anyway) or they're in for a disappointment. As for hardcore fans of Revolution's games - it's more of a curiosity than a standalone product (as hardcore fans, obviously, own the games already), but one worth plunging into for some time. The games are what they are - somewhat lesser-known and somewhat inferior Amiga and PSX versions, with all their quirks. All of them made to be seamlessly playable with either a mouse or a gamepad, which is quite cool. What shows a really nice touch is the main loader, featuring a collection of vintage covers, artworks, promo media, music and such stuff. I'd be even more delighted if these extras were downloadable as PDFs and MP3s as well. It's a bit lacklustre in terms of presentation, as the launcher falls short of filtering the graphics. You can enable and somewhat configure pseudo-CRT scanlines, but that's mostly it. ScummVM does a way better job at this, offering a wide array of filters and scalers. Thing to be appreciated is that pillarboxing of the games on a panoramic display can be done with quality artworks on bezels (or just black bars, naturally), although this should be more configurable (i.e. auto-pick the artwork depending on which of the games I launch). As an alternative, you can still choose 16:9 scaling, but that's the wrong approach imo. Save slots are a hindrance - there are only three available per game. In this context, the focus should be on convenience (a.k.a. quality of life) rather than sticking to once-existing hardware limitations. Overall it's not a perfect product. It's never intended to be your first contact with these classic games. But it is worth buying if you are a long-term fan. Even more so if on sale.
