Summary My 1st on-line review, I'm only doing it because no one else reviewed this title and I wanted anyone interested it it to know that I, at least, found it enjoyable.I played it a couple of years ago, when it was released under the title "Cydonia", so my memory is a little hazy on the details. The basic story is you're going to Mars to investigate the famous "face" in the landscape photographed by NASA spacecraft. Your ship and crewmates are disabled and you must continue alone to unravel the mystery surrounding the discovery of some sort of civilization there. The storyline was interesting and the puzzles challenging. The only annoyance I experienced is not that you spend a lot of time traveling back and forth between locations in your little shuttle (Mars being a big place) but that they used the same cut-scene showing your little shuttle zooming over the sand in an east-to-west direction no matter what direction you're actually going. I think any adventure-gamer will enjoy this game. SEMI-SPOILER: .eivom if-ics tegdub-gib tnecer a ot ralimis ylbakramer si tolp cisab ehT Sound Don't really recall anything about the sound, so it couldn't have been appallingly bad or that would've stuck in my mind.Gameplay Your basic point-and-click slide-show adventure. Navigation was pretty easy and there's an inventory to store the items you need to complete some of the puzzles. Don't recall any system crashes while playing.Note on difficulty and game-length: I used a walk-through so actual playtime should be much more than I've indicated. Would you like to Comment?
