OOOWE, what a difficult game, 6 May 2001
Author: alexanderjallan from Stirling, Scotland

This game is incedidibly difficult. I've always though that with this type of game it should say, along the requirements- minimum of IQ 150. Some of the puzzles are beyond complex and very time consuming. However the story of this game is quite inventive and the characters make it interesting. But watch out for the hammy acting of the guy you play- Jake Quinlan- it is quite amusing if you don't take it seriously. Chrisopher Walken is overacting to the extreme but since I like him as an actor and this is just a computer game, I've forgiven that. I wish they would re-release games like this on one DVD, instead of 6 discs it originally came in. The walkthrough available on the web doesn't make you feel like a cheat, strangely, because it still takes forever. On the whole it is a good experience, though, as you get closer to finding out the ripper.
