“Idk why they just didn't make it online co op instead of single player. Thank god remote play worked fine though. Ending was awful and clearly rushed. But majority of the game was fine.”

“作为重制版，画质更加优秀没得说，感觉像看一部电影，不过有的时候居然还是旧版画质差一点更有味道，重制版少了点史诗的震撼多了点梦幻童真的快乐。。。而且相较于旧版，重制版在操作性上更加舒服，单人在方向和视角的操作上感受明显，有的关卡难度竟然做了调整，比如几个遛狗就明显感觉变难了。Steam商店和游戏内居然居然给我默认简中版本，态度好评。一些以前的bug也修复了，很明显流畅不少。…”
“The story line is interesting enough. The gameplay is very lacking. I think I may have used 3 r 4 buttons the entire time.”

“The games has a great graphic, bug some bugs along the way. Also, no option to skip cutscene is bad, bad the game is very short overall so it doesn't take a lot to do the 100%”

“If Steam had a "neutral" or "informative" option for reviews i would have definitely selected that for this game. While it's great (and rare) to see a remake fully respect the original title without reinventing the wheel, unnecessary redesigns, changes to iconic scenes and…”
