A platform game which both manages to encapsulate what was best about every other platform game before it, and yet bring an amazing amount of originality to the story and gameplay.
The story itself is quite dark and disturbing, yet touching. The gameplay speaks for itself, literally! Being able to converse, and order around other characters in the game (without dialogue options etc) was an inspired touch, and elevates this game from a great example fo the genre in it's time, to a game that you simply must play at some point, even now.
