This game is really great. You can read my review of it here and also an interview with its creator. Unfortunately, a full English version hasn't been released so far.

I'm unable to recommend a place where you could buy it. The Polish and Italian versions actually have English voiceovers, but the game includes also some text present only in writing (books and such) and you would miss out on it if you played those.
You could try to contact the game's publisher Future Games and ask them if a full English version is coming any time soon.

I also must say that in the Italian version (which I have, even if I haven't played the game yet), as far as I know, the translation substantially modify three or two moments of the game.

Really? What kind of changes are those exactly?

As I said, I haven't played the game yet. But it is what the press (reliable press, I mean) says about the game. I don't have the article right here, right now. Later today I'll see if I can post an English translation of the segment in question.

How about if we apply the English SUBs patch on Italian version, so the version will become Full English :-)

I gather from several other message boards that the game doesn't perform very well (bug-wise) under Win7 so I'd recommend for everyone who wants to play it to do so under XP.
(I played the German version on a virtual XP machine on a MacBook Pro and it was flawless). |

Don't use the default Program Files(x86) in Win 7. I installed it in My Documents and it played just fine. Good game, I enjoyed it. |
