Another World

Explore a mysterious alien world in this peculiar polygon adventure from Delphine. Taking the role of Lester the scientist, the player is transported - as a result of an experiment gone wrong - into an alternate universe where nothing is what it seems. Joystick-controlled with relatively little interaction between characters, Another World is a flawed but brave product.

Although there aren't that many problems to solve and actually the interest in the game is more connected with the look than the feel, it's still a worthwhile purchase.

Overall, it's an impressive game. It's got plenty of drawbacks, but on the whole, it scores a big plus. For players looking for a new angle on the arcade adventure genre and in particular anyone who has a stronger interest in new graphic styles than the depth or longevity of their game, it fits the bill perfectly.
