    A welcome addition to the Dreamcast library, however this title may not satisfy every gamer out there. This is definitely geared to the adventure-oriented player.

    The quirky controls and butt-ugly full motion video may force a couple of would-be adventurers to turn to something else. But for those of us who have patience enough to hang in there and dig for the good stuff, there's plenty of it to find.
  3. If you thought the older versions were too tough and frustrating, this won't change your mind. One-hit kills and unrelenting traps will test your mettle (and your ability to refrain from throwing your controller).
  4. The result is a game even worse than the port it came from. It's not an awful game, but it is awfully mediocre.
