Default Inherit the Earth

I think this game deserves three and a half stars compared to the given four. Some of the to-and-fro's and the maze parts are really inexcusable. Nice distraction from the real world still.

Although I'm not too sure about the family orientation of the game. The apocolyptic setting used to scare the hell out of me when I was eight. But then I think I was sensitive to those sort of things as 2001 Space Odyssee made me cry for days at that age after seeing it.

Oh and the voice actor for the boar friend really pisses me off.

No, this game is nowhere as class as the likes of Normality's actors.

I think the game deserves 2 stars, and i doubt if the game would be remembered or have good reweis (which will follow now in a great amount, I'm sure) if not the rerealise. The game is just uninteresting.

But didn't you want to cry when Rif was all like "Rene! Will you marry me?!" And the the orb started shooting, like, flames and stuff?

I had actually been recommended this game individually by several people over in the AGS community, so it's intruiged me for a while now. I guess it wasn't forgettable to everyone.
