Oct 16, 2011The puzzles in this platformer are unforgiving-expect to die a lot-but rarely too mind-bending. The basically non-verbal story is energetic and thrilling, and in spite of a relatively short amount of gameplay (one or two hours for many) Another World still feels like a standard-setter in action-game design.

Oct 3, 2011Another World 20th Anniversary looks, sounds and controls great and is easily one of the best applications found on the Apple market. Another World 20th Anniversary gets 5 out of 5 stars.

-
Sep 26, 2011Another World is a cult game that after 20 years is perfectly playable and capable to enjoy the player. There are several flaws in the iOS porting, starting from a touch interface not so precise and fast but you simply have to buy this game.
-
Sep 23, 2011An extraordinary example of a 20-year-old classic being brought into a new era with the utmost care and respect.
-
Sep 27, 2011Aside from an old-skool difficulty level that is exacerbated by touchscreen controls that are understandably less responsive than a keyboard or joystick, the iOS version of Another World is flawless. You'll find in it all of the quality of the original: exceptional atmosphere, surprisingly contemporary gameplay, and a successful platform/adventure mix.
-
Oct 5, 2011Apart from the above foibles of game play, Another World: 20th Anniversary is a fine piece of work. It's going to be a satisfying fix for nostalgia junkies (you can even opt for 16-bit aesthetics instead of HD if you so desire), and damned good fun for those of you who have only recently been transported to Another World.
-
Sep 28, 2011Featuring cleaned up graphics and mysterious gameplay, Another World retains appeal for gamers even after all these years.
-
Sep 27, 2011A great example of how to offer a classic game to a new audience with improved graphics and sound for a low price. Another World - 20th Annivesary is every bit as hard as it once was, but this iOS version is far from a lazy port. It offers an improved core experience with the option to play the 1991 version, features excellent touch controls, and gives a new breed of gamers the chance to explore why this classic was such a big deal.
-
Sep 27, 2011Real attention has been paid to making sure justice has been down to this handheld version. Everything you loved about the 1991 release is here to savour, and the game has translated surprisingly well to the iPhone. Just beware the crazy difficulty.
-
Sep 26, 2011The fact that we enjoyed Another World 20 years after it first debuted is a testament to its greatness. Other games have copied its cinematic storytelling and puzzles, but this is where it all began. Young or old, you'll appreciate much of what this engaging adventure has to offer.
-
Sep 23, 2011One of Another World's largest shortcomings, which is really a product of its original design, is that it's more of an exercise in repetition than actual skill.
-
Sep 23, 2011A wonderful reminder of how unique a video game can truly be. Whether you're a fan of the original release or a gamer who's never heard of the work of Eric Chahi before, Another World: 20th Anniversary Edition is one you'll want to be adding to your collection.
