Summary
The game in time, or even one step ahead of time.
The Good
Ahh, this is the type of game that includes changing computer's history. First time I saw this game, back in Amiga days, I noticed the well designed intro, but I didn't pay much attention to the game itself. Huh, I guess I was too young to admit that masterpiece. The price I payed is that I finished that game when I realized its greatness. Unlike to its sequel - "Flashback", "Another World" (that was official title in my country, I figured out much lately its name's also "Out of This World") gives you an original story, new life to platform based kinda games, great animation sequences during gameplay, excellent music and sound atmosphere, and nicely painted rooms and places, as well as characters and other monsters. This game is in fact much better then I speak, so take a look and tell me I'm wrong, if you dare after that.
The Bad
Hah, that trick is too old for me to fall. This game is absolutely one hundred percent amazing.
The Bottom Line
If you like platform based games, with not much complications on player controls, and easy-to-learn movements, excellent story, look no further. This game will give you that and more. It's great that even some characters in the game will help you during gameplay, so you won't have feeling like you're playing alone, 'cuz part of your computer will be right by your side, playing along with you, and at the same time against itself. Hah, did I succeed to confuse you? Well, that was not my intention at all. Better thinking, that's rather usual to today's games, in RTS, or RPG kinda games especially. But you must take at consideration that those times didn't gave us much modems or any piece of hardware to input a friend in a game, except maybe at the same computer, when screen splits at two, and that goes usually for sport simulation. Well, I'm maybe a li'l off road now, so back to topic. "Another World" is really a great game, and I trully recommend it to anyone who loves games.
