This game has several dialogue issues of all kinds. The voice acting sounds stilted and forced. The text parser is bad, much worse than the original. With the price of this remake you'd think they would have fewer issues and improved more than just the graphics. Not at all worth the price, even at the 50% off I paid for it. If you reallly want it, wait for an 80% off sale. That would be close to the actual value of this game.
Only worth your time if it triggers a great deal of nostalgia for you. The remake is pretty buggy and not great. Still, if you played the old Gold Rush (which is also included) then it can be enjoyable. Otherwise, stay away.
If you're "old", buy this game for a couple of hours of nostalgia. If you're young, buy this game to get a sense of what games were like long ago. Turn on the original parser for a minute. Then tell your father you're happy to live in the future, thank you very much. Either way, with the updated graphics and interface it's a solid adventure game you both can enjoy.
I bought this against my better judgement. Right off the bat it greets you with an into with a narrator that sounds like a foreign film dub. The voice acting is full of awkward pauses, as if it were all done in one-take. I had to skip the intro to make the cringing stop. On to the first scene. Ok. Nice shiny graphics. Then a horse cart comes along. Its graphics look too CGI, too clean-and-shiny, like the early days of 3D modelling. Think the 7th Guest and Myst1. This is a 2014 game? Maybe if they'd done animated 2D instead of all the wasted effort on the overly clean 3D backdrops? I dunno. I talk to people in the streets. Badly edited cuts. Again like it was "one-take, we'll edit the pauses out of it in post". This is King's Quest 5 levels of bad voice acting. Are the people supposed to sound like non-native speakers? One of them did sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger, which was pretty
The only rush I had was when I closed this game. It felt so good.
Remake of an absolute classic, from a time before modern computers. Experience the Classic version for the genuine old-time experience!
