First put me off the Special Edition. How, for example, the High vorfand of Bioshock High-quality figures in such an edition, noticed at first glance that the figures tend therefore came as cheap toy. The painting is unloving and often wrong. Because I would have definitely expected more. But more to the content.
The soundtrack enticed me, and the little puzzle. The music has been really umgehaun me. You can tell that there were masters at work again! In this respect it has been worthwhile.
Now finally directly to the game:
I wondered once on the resolution that the game Bot. I play on a 22-inch screen where the game came along quite pixelated. Unfortunately, it is designed only for the 1024x768, which unfortunately does not break out with a windowed mode like in Edna is to fix. Since you can resolve this issue, unfortunately only with knitting 17 one star less.
After a short time I got used to it and it was the charming flair of old good Adventures. The puzzles are great but especially stood out the super jokes! I sometimes have to laugh. The atmosphere is beautifully staged, despite its grim background. The music is unique. From melancholic sounds to true masterpieces that are generally just remember the lovely Mona, and more!
So far, the puzzles were well-fitting but not too easy. Exploring the castle is really fun and besides the absolute witty sayings of Froderick to have it can not be boring minute. It's not just about to come to Paris. We will also find out what happened to the Baroness and get more information about their men out. You meet a lot of traveling funny and interesting creatures that can not only help one but produce a laugh in any situation.
Conclusion: If you would not necessarily worth the soundtrack, would not need to resort to the special edition. The story is told affectionately. The 2D and 3D graphics in harmony with each other quite nicely drawn and there is everything in great detail. In general, the game has been a huge success for me, if you can resolve from the windowed mode and shortcoming of smaller bugs that you start by saving and re-play of the can (display error of the characters) foresee. The game itself would get 5 stars.
The Special Edition se unfortunately gets only 3 stars. Two Star deduction for the unloving therefore perfect figures. But at least one keeps the soundtrack, a small puzzle and a card in the hands, which I think is a bit boring but fails.
