    A prison stripped of its gloomy aura – everyone is quite friendly and helpful, and the anthropomorphic animals don't help with the atmosphere. There aren't enough days to play, which also detracts from the atmosphere. It was a rather interesting idea, with a logical progression of our actions and the need to appear at specific locations and try to figure out patterns – much like in Prisoner of War.

    Overall, Back to the Dawn is fantastic. There’s so much to do that you’ll be kept busy for many, many hours. I found myself thinking about my in-game plans before real-life bed – it just gets in your head. The retro graphics, fun characters, and seemingly endless quests all add towards a game that’s well worth your time.

    A clearly ambitious mix of sandbox sim and RPG concepts with well-written characters, but you really need to invest in it fully to get the most out of it.
