Frustrating/Boring Puzzles: The Game
13 Jun 2023
It needed desperately a remake. The story is excellent, the writing and voices are Oscar-worthy. Even the gameplay ideas and environments are there. It’s just that the controls are so dated, the combat is nearly good but it falls too heavily into clunky territory.

Love the theme, the atmosphere and the feel of the game. Mechanics are a bit outdated but still a fun game.

Insuferable platforming, slippery controllers, abhorrent puzzles. Story that starts good but the more it goes the worst it gets, updated visuals are good, voice acting is excellent, dialogue is great, main characters are very well done, lore and atmosphere are on point. Level design is intersting but so outdated and maze like. The map and compass additions are worthless. The teleport is horrible. Not as good as i remember as a kid. You will never beat this game without a guide, you will get lost forever, zero sense of direction, time waster. Lots of backtracking. Needs a remake

This game is one of those arts that has no expiration date!

One of the greatest games I’ve ever played and one of the most desperate for a remake on modern hardware. Such a trippy soundtrack and world
