    While it looks and sounds good and is a solid-playing game, it is not without a few annoying quirks that pop up at moments when you least need or want them. The addition of being able to play as a villain is a welcome change.
  2. GameZone
    62
    The actual gameplay is unlikely to impress serious gamers and may, to some, the game may be found seriously wanting.
  3. Hot Games

    It’s not awful, and is in fact a solid platform game, but it can be annoying, and even worse, pretty boring at times.
  4. GamerWeb Sony

    Although it does have some neat elements, such as being able to play as the bad guy and several spell elements, it doesn't make up for the lack of texture quality, as well as the shaky framerate and bad camera.
  5. Core Magazine

    It's always interesting to have the option of being the bad guy, but truly bland gameplay and a relatively short quest sap the fun and make this a rental at best.
  6. Yahoo!

    Talking of light, there are several periods playing as Rick that you'll be inching forward down rocky tunnels with virtually no illumination to help you and the 3D map that you can cut to when you're feeling lost is worse than useless.

    Save your money for something less painful, like a bikini wax or unanaesthetized dental surgery.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sigue de mejor manera a la Pelicula que su antescensor. pero fracasa en intentos de mejorar las mecanicas. Hay juegos mucho mejores en todos esos aspectos en Ps1. Graficos malos, musica nula casi. Con Imothep es injugable. Se rescata que tiene un par de buenas ideas pero nada mas.… Expand
