The LBA games still give me some great nostalgic memories, which is why they probably forever will remain among my favourite games of all time. For a long time a Little Big Adventure 3 game seemed like impossible but at least some slightly enhanced versions of the classic games + this remake of the original game have come out, so perhaps an LBA3 game might be made after all at some point. Little Big Adventure - Twinsen's Quest pretty much follows the same story as the original, except for some unnecessary changes with Twinsen having a sister and she's kind of replacing Zoé. Zoé is still there though, just do not understand why they felt the need to change this. LBA1&2 had an unique art-style and I can imagine it's hard to capture that same atmosphere with modern graphics. At first I really did not like the new graphic style but at one point it starts to grow on you. I still think the game could have been more gloomy like the original games though. The gameplay is more or less the same aside from the frustrating controlls of the original ones. It does make the game a bit more easy but I think it's a welcoming change. Overall I think Twinsen's Quest is a nice remake. It does bring back a few memories, it's fun to play and hopefully we see more of LBA in the future.

I finished the game yesterday in one breath. I remembered a bit of my childhood. It was cool, although predictable. I liked the storyline with Luna and the unusual role of Zoe. At the very beginning, I also liked playing in the city before the repressions of Fanfrock. It turned out that at first the inhabitants of the planet did not consider Fanfrock a dictator, everything was more or less good, and his clones even helped take out the trash and so, imperceptibly and little by little, he began to forbid more and more, until the planet finally slid into total dictatorship and repression. It's a pity, as usual, they didn't let me play at the end, when everyone won and the city rejoices. I'm sure almost everyone would have bought the deluxe version if it had the ability to continue playing after the end. Just without tasks, but with a full inventory and pumped up, to be able to be on the citadel island during the victory celebration and travel to all the other islands. Played with Macbook on Windows emulator, everything works) Even without mouse, old-fashioned way on keyboard. I liked the game, I recommend it to everyone I took extended version, there was music and art book Here)) If you make the second part, try to make it at least not worse, with full 3D, at least on the street.

The controls feel a little bit weird but overall i think they did a great job of capturing the old game. Lets hope they remake LBA 2, thats what im looking forward to ❤️

One of my favorite childhood games, beautifully remade and sensibly modernized. Really hoping for a remake of the second game as well!

It'd be very hard to capture the original's feel. It's not as childish as the sequel, it's more serious, it dealt with ideas like dictatorship, censorship, oppression, etc. Even though it did contain some infantile elements (silly voice acting in part, animal-like characters), the game felt mysterious, even gloomy at times. Amazingly having just turned 30, LBA1 was unlike any other 1994 game I can think of. Higher resolution than most regular games, CGI cutscenes, 3D characters, moody and elaborate orchestral music, atmospheric sound effects (I still remember my first time hearing the ocean waves in Citadel port, or the Hamalayi snow crunching under Twinsen's feet, and being sooo immersed). I don't think the remake stood a chance at fully capturing the feel or the multifaceted beauty of the original (because it was lightning in a bottle), although it does improve on its more frustrating elements (combat annoyances, bullets knocking you back, wall-hitting, Bu puzzles, no detailed maps, etc.) It brings back a more infantile tone, akin to LBA2, as it does feel aimed at kids way more than LBA1 was. The polygon count is low, I mean I was looking at the inventory screen and was struck by how even the original's items seemed higher-poly (or the cutscenes, which use ingame models, seem lower poly than the original's). Animations too, I give the upper hand to the original - in the remake, if Twinsen faces one way and you press the opposite direction, Twinsen just instantly faces the other way, with no inbetween frames, which seems janky. The music too seems less memorable than the original's - even though the melodies are largely the same, they seem less complex or elaborate somehow, less impactful, like there are some missing notes or something... I know I sounded rather negative thus far, but the remake does have its own beauty too. I love the seamless islands, they look beautiful. Just looking at the Citadel or Principal island maps, I was struck by how pretty they looked. Twinsun Cafe on Tippet Island also looks stunning. Heck, some might even prefer the minimalistic stylization of the remake, which feels more deliberate as a style than the original's isometric repetitiveness. Though a bit pricey I think, I do recommend it, because it's far from bad, and I love all things LBA. Most of all, I'd love for more people to (re)discover the original!
