| Deleted User | One of the best games I've ever played. 10.

| Deleted User | One of the best indeed, but I gave 9; mostly because at many points you are clueless about what to do and nothing is going on. But at the same time it is part of the originality and fun...
Edit: and I liked the action sequences, I thought it added to the dramatic intensity

Status : Online | I didn't care so much for the try-what-happens-and-rewind gameplay, but the artwork was terrific and voice acting was better than most movies, let alone games. A beautifully produced and (unfortunately) one of a kind game. Very classy, just like Orient Express used to be.
I forgot my sig.

Status : Online | And yet another 9. First time I played it, I apparently was stupid or not in the mood, got stuck and gave up. Next time - after many people here recommended playing it - I discovered a lot of detail I didn't the first time around and finished it while having a lot of fun. Very good and original game.

Status : Offline | 8 from me. I agree with the comments above regarding shortcomings of the rewind approach and that at times your are clueless as to what to do next. but it is original, has a well-written story and quality voice acting.
