Nov. 2025

I didn't know this game, so I wondered a little bit about the 90'-ies -touch in the gameplay. As common back then the gameplay is a kind of slow and not without a challenge. The game has a strong story and is very atmospheric. The diologues are very charming and humorous. The combat is kind of simple but feels fluent. The movements are clunky - you need patiance for this kind of game. For me the story was amazing and after I started playing I was looking forward to continue after work every day. I really enjoyed playing this game and do recommend it.

Jumping mechanics like the old Tomb Raider games had me pulling my hair out but Outcast is alright other that that. Outcast is a remaster that maintains the feeling of the original version, driven by a good narrative structure that puts the player in a big world populated by different alien races that give a lot of different quests. Instead the gameplay is old and unfriendly and graphics that dont hold up.

I played this game when I was a boy. Couldn't win it back then, wasn't ready. Now I bought it and won it. I needed that. Great game, especially for its time. This remade version (higher graphics) made it playable. I wouldn't have played the game with classic graphics. So big thanks to the re-creator ;) I feel like I broke through something. Will help me in in real life.

Excellent revamp of the classic game. Voice acting and musical score are still top notch.

March 2025

Nice remake The game demonstrates impressive technical and creative ambition for a game made in 1999. While not an RPG the game's emphasis on exploration player-driven progress and engaging world-building reminded me of Gothic 1. Its open world design and attention to detail give off a similar sense of freedom and discovery.
