A perfectly playable game, but nothing really special.

Before I start, let me begin by saying I am not an 'avid' adventure gamer or even a particularly avid gamer full stop, so just to let people know where I am coming from, but saying that I did love Escape From Monkey Island and this is kinda what I hoped this game would be like.

It looks respectable, nothing visually amazing but then it's all very passable all the same. The control system is adequate to get around but again nothing ground breaking. The spoken dialogue is excellent I will concede however the in game music is ill chosen and some sort of pseudo elevator music does not fit in anywhere in the game. The missions again are so so perhaps slightly on the easy side and the overall story line is alright.

I don't really know what it is about this game. It certainly isn't 'bad' but at the same time it isn't really good either. It sort of sits in that void which 80% of games sit in which can best be summed up as 'Oh yeah'. Game which aren't so bad or irritating they stick in your memory but they lack that certain 'something' which makes them good. Sorry!
