What can I say? This game is absolutely incredible on all fronts. You play Ethan, a lonely orphan who slaves away for a grumpy old man. You decide your life sucks one day and make up your mind to escape. You adventures take you to forests and castles, swamps and caves, and what an adventure. The graphics in this are superb, with large, close up characters and small 1x1 people other times. Excellent use of color and different environments, and some amazing cinematics as well. The music choice couldn't leave anything to be desired, all appropriate, non-intrusive tunes. The dialogue is a bit cliched sometimes, but Almighty Cow can't be perfect at everything, could he? This game comes pretty close, nevertheless. Go on, give it a whirl. You'll see what I mean by the time you reach the title screen.

I agree. I even felt for little Ethan during the game. It's got attractive graphics; it's fun, it's interesting, and I had never seen anything like it before. The cinematics are yes, very well done, and the game overall was put together nicely. I suppose I second what Revvy has said. I wanted to review this game because I think it's pretty great. -bk
