Another World – 20th Anniversary Edition

A short yet thrilling action adventure, in a stunning low-fi science fiction setting. Some really fantastic sequences, the Gladiator Arena may be an all time video game moment for me, great stuff in there. Try to push through the difficulty curve, the controls show their age, but a very chill play experience once that’s embraced. Glad I finally returned and played through this gem.

THIS WAS THE 1ST EVER PC GAME I SAW AS A KID AT RADIO SHACK AT THE MALL!!! IT WAS CALLED OUT OF THIS WORLD AND I LOVED BEATING THE GAME! THIS GAME GAVE ME THE DESIRE AND DRIVE TO BE A PC GAMER LATER IN LIFE EVEN THOUGH I FINALLY PLAYED AND BEAT THIS GAME AFTER THAT INITIAL DEMO I SAW AT THE SHACK! GET IT ITS AMAZING AS A TRUE RETRO!!! 1991 WAS A CRAZY FUN YEAR!!

Сделал ремастер? Чел, харош, как насчёт сделать отдельные кнопки для бега и выстрела, а также убрать идиотскую задержку ввода?

Кусок кривого кaлa, увы. Поностальгировать не вышло.

It's impossible to image that someone would create a game like this in 1991.
The graphics still nice and animations too. This game has better cutscenes than some Ubisoft games

Another Press Action to continue

I keep heccin diein alot in this Bungie Marathon kewl world

Fun at first, but then the puzzles wear on you.

Sole designer, programmer, and artist for Another World Éric Chahi stated that he designed the levels of Another World randomly. If this is indeed the case, then I profess him a genius.

If one were to propose a checklist of all that games should aspire to achieve, I venture that no game would fare a better chance of ticking all of the boxes than another world. Without spilling the proverbial beans, its narrative is beautiful, and is told only through the context of the medium. No words are spoken, for they are not needed. The world is obtuse and alien, building this unending sense of dread and confusion, and aligning the player with the state of our protagonist. Puzzles are smartly woven into this world, each designed with a narrative quality that builds upon the previous two strengths. They are not all incredible puzzles, but a criminal quantity are. Another World is the genesis of Fumito Ueda’s design by subtraction, implemented perhaps more effectively than he ever has. Kojima cites it for Metal Gear Solid (though I cannot see much resemblance beyond the first entry). Another World is one of those games wherein you see the brilliance that later inspired games with which you are already smitten, but in it you also see these ideas implemented with greater excellence. I can conceive no higher praise than that.

This beautiful game was released in November 1991, the same month and year I was released. While I've changed over the past three decades, this game stays the same. Sometimes it seems like a thing can change just because its surroundings change. Someday I'll be gone, and it will still be here. It's a really lovely little thing. It's difficult and funny. It reminds me to not be stuck in my ways, and to not stick too closely to the formula, because you never know what the formula will be 30 years from now. It reminds me to make art and tell stories, because you never know who might just happen to be born the same time that your art is released, and they imprint on it forever. Thanks for being there with me, Another World. Here's to another 30 years!

while the game is flawed in it's nature, I think it's still need to be experienced.

you'll suffer a little bit from it's trial and error gameplay with a bad checkpoint placement and the way sometimes the game won't recognize your input. (which I had the same problem on the PS4 version)

but there's a reason why I'm insisting on playing this game.
you see this game came out in 1991 and for it's time and today (with the visual upgrade) is an amazing game.
the way it transition from a cutscene to gameplay or the way they tried to squeeze different kind of puzzles and mechanics in it's short playtime is a great achievement that should the new generation experience and appreciate.

from a remake prespective, I expected a lot and they didn't delivered. it's a short game so I don't think it was a hard job.
anyway try this and the next game in the series if you want to.

Great game in many ways and outshines modern games in many others. Sadly, given the clunky controls and horrible checkpoint locations, it can be an utter nightmare to complete. I gave up half way through and just watched someone else beat it to save time. After seeing the latter half of the game, I'm glad I bailed. I played on the Steam controller so maybe I would have faired better on a desktop with mouse and kb. You want true difficulty unlike synthetic Dark Souls difficulty, play this.

A timeless classic.

Even without the nostalgia of playing it on the Mega Drive, it's clear how groundbreaking this game was for 1991.

Its cinematic storytelling and unique art style are still impressive today.

Plus, it's a satisfying 100% for achievement hunters!

for a game that launch in 1991 its really nice but that ending was so lame xd

very cool lil game to play in one sitting! while there are some moments i dont think i wouldve known how to get through without a guide, i liked the feeling of going "ohhhh" when i'd figure out a tough solution on my own. the whole feel of the game is also super cool just in general.

i see some people saying the game feels dated cuz of the controls and some of the more obtuse things here and there, and thats fair, but i simply like the feeling i get from playin the game. its unique, and i think theres a lotta value to be had in playing something that feels like it wouldnt be made the same way today

classic title thats aged extremely well in all departments (except gameplay unfortunately, expect your fair share of classic adventure game bullshit deaths)

i absolutely adore the visuals and atmosphere however and its absolutely worth a playthrough for that alone at the very least, long live the amiga

absolutely legendary

The game itself is very short and can, theoretically, be beaten before the refund period ends; however, unless you are aware of what that entails, odds are you will not be able to. Because this game is from a time when games were designed based on player trial and error and developers pulled no punches to offering a challenge while telling their story.
If you are a gamer who appreciates the blind thrill of a new challenge, and would love to experience the narrative which inspired games like ICO, then this title is definitely a great choice!
Despite the challenging aspect, this work is still a worthwhile experience for both patient gamers willing to sit through the trial and error or those who simply follow a guide. I wholeheartedly recommend attempting the former before looking up a guide, like I had to, but the result is still the same: a short adventure which thrusts a silent hero into a strange, harsh world as he encounters both friends and enemies in what quickly becomes the ultimate fight for survival.

I remember playing this on an Amiga with my uncle back in the stone ages. One of my old, classic favs

Absolute classic. Played this back on SNES in the 90s. The graphics were like from... another world. Yes, pun intended.

Perfeito!

still a great game today, cinematic

As a child I never beat this game.
I'm aware if you know all the solutions within the game it would take less than 15 mins to beat this game.

As an adult this was worth $10 to me. Finally beating a game (found out I was only 30 seconds away from beating it as a child after I beat it today) I never completed before. Did it in an hour as well. Glad I got to relive the experience.

Now time to watch a speedrunner do this in 6 mins.

Loved Out Of This World on SNES

OG gem, when a half hour game took you weeks to figure out because you weren't thinking outside the box.

Another World teleports your mind into the game!

Another World is the brain child of one Eric Chahi, who did pertty much everything except the music and broke new grounds using vector graphics and non broken visual only narrative - it was really ahead of it's time in many level and thanks to this remaster, it aged even better.
This game was a huge success and led Chahi to work with Infogrames for his next project, and then he left the industry for almost 20 years
Why does this sound so familiar?

This gamme is so art

This has been a favorite game of mine since I played the SNES version. The feeling of being disconnected in a mostly lonely and alien atmosphere, all while attempting to fumble your way through survival with ideas and guesswork feels relatable. The art style opens imagination with it's shadowed beasts and imperfect shapes as you explore your surroundings, where the only clear goal is to keep moving.

Childhood favorite, i'm 31 now i'm glad I took the time to beat it and claim all the achievements. This game kicked my A$$ as a kid and now as an adult. Feeling accomplished figured I would leave a review.
