Leafy's simple review - #50 (The BIG 5-0) 🥳

I remember when I struggled to run it, but dreamt of the day that when I could, that this would blow my expectations of what interactivity in a game was all about 😍

The wait was not in vain.

Graphics made me salivate for its time, and the clear difference with its predecessor was a quantum leap. The story was subtle and had much foreshadowing, showing and not telling the player what they needed to know with expert banter. The gameplay was varied and creative in its approach (gravity gun? anyone?!). And the sounds - oh my lawdy lawd, the sounds 🎧 It brought it to life in ways, many games of its time could not achieve.

Its a classic. Stop reading and play it hard 🎮
