Amazing port of a classic from back in the day.
FYI, this game has an easy 1000G -- it's like being rewarded for spending 90 minutes reliving your younger years.

Oh man, I absolutely this game back in the day on my old Amiga. The opening sequence was brilliant.
Might just have to buy it for nostalgia, even if once you work out how to complete the game, its fairly easy (at least it was on the Amiga)

This was on Mega Drive, wanted to play it but somebody stole my savings I had raised for a game, couldn't afford Virtual Racing. Eventually couldn't afford this too. :disappointed:

I am thinking that is where I recognise it from, the Megadrive, I remember finding it a surreal gaming experience, something brand new. Im going to give it another try for this great price. Heat.

Most definitely. But then again, I'm a little more relaxed about my purchasing habits every Tuesday...

Super Cars II, Syndicate, Super Frog, North and South, Skidmarks, Worms - such insane fun. You should google "the company amiga" sometime and have yourself a nice blast of nostalgia.

Such good memories, even though I didn't own an amiga... but my friend did and I spent many hours round his house :man:
It's cack.
Anyone saying different is being an elitist clique goon.
It's got some abstract artey atmosphere going on that works well but the actual game is awful.
Sorta still something about it though.....

Did you grow up with the original, or are you basing your view on only playing this version? Genuinely curious.

Elitist clique goon here. I loved this game on the Amiga. The atmosphere, the suspense. It was incredible.
I've no idea how this has aged but it's well worth finding out for 2 quid.
I am playing it on normal, and it feels like dark souls before dark souls.
If only it had a save state function, so I don't have to repeat a minute of jumping/killing/blasting doors open.
I remember playing it on Amiga (500+ FTW) and not completing it and resolve to do it now!

For those that can't get enough of this game, there is a very little known game called Heart of the Alien which is the sequel to another world. It was only ever released on Sega CD so not many people got to play it. Trust me when I say it's well worth finding a Sega CD emeulator to play this on (If you loved this game!). Also, Flashback was another classic, somehow linked to this game which was also amazing!

It was interesting back in the day as prince of Persia was. Prince of Persia can still hold up though as although the motion capture controls are ropey they are reliable. Another world controls are dreadful and unreliable with a sluggish tone that cannot be adapted to.
Key presses are missed and animation pacing to hit the right cells to press buttons are off.
Besides it's just too awkward to try and hit the ball with the granularity it is trying to.

Should have been a point and click game.
