    When I first bought it, I had a really good feeling it was going to be an awesome game. And, as it turns out, it was! Sure, you're going to have frustrating deaths and the fact that the game is very short, but that won't stop you from replaying it again and again. You can also switch between original and new graphics and soundtrack. How cool is that? This game deserves an honest 8 out of 10.

    Another World is a great game, controls are not bad at all , but the game is not for everyone. If you have played this game in past and liked it you will like ti again... Give ti a try.

    My fav version so far is the snes one, since they put extra music which truly set the mood in some parts of the game.
    This is a very cinematic game, and one of the first to do that, but also has very interesting gameplay, hit or miss sometime you'll die many times in a trial and error manner, never loosing the fun, you dont mind cause you're very interested about what comes next! love the sequel too, shame they didn't included it in this anniversary release since the game is very short. The sequel is a very good game and gives it a proper closure in my opinion, only released for sega cd, so get an emulator and play it!

    This game is one of the favorite games of metal gear creator Koshima, play it and see why.

    this game is an absolute masterpiece for the ages. period. no obnoxious spastic hyperactive button mashing, no life meter, no score, just pure artistic atmosphere and ingenuity ahead of its time. in a world of game design companies that sought to pile on the next mindless clone of a clone, one single game designer dared to be different, eric chahi.

    messed up controls makes this frustrating as hell. but considering it's 20yo, we gotta try looking the the other way while playing this on a pS4, right?

    Today it carries far more historical worth than it does actual entertainment. [Sept 2014, p.110]

    Brutally difficult and timelessly fun. Another World is an important game, but also overpriced. [September 2014, p77]

    It has aged terribly. [Oct 2014, p.80]
