Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“The game itself is good, but I don't recommend this port. Saving does not work and half the time I use the emulator's saves, it breaks. Developers need to do some major work on it before I could recommend buying it. :(”
“The game itself: 8/10 (played it on PS1) This port: 5/10 Cons: - Poor quality of the picture (+resolution) literally hurts my eyes. - Camera rotation barely works - Frequent frame drops”
