Indigo Prophecy is not a perfect game. There are camera and control issues, the graphics arent stellar, and the action sequences can be imprecise at points. However, the games sound, story, and characters are so strong, and the variety of situations players will find themselves in is so large, that at no point is this a boring play experience. An average gamer can expect to put in about 12 to 15 hours to run through this game, though depending on how good you are with the action sequences you can definitely get through faster. However, if youre rushing through this game, youre not playing it properly. For anyone craving a new, twisting suspense story with a little action mixed in, youll definitely come away with Indigo Prophecy as a satisfied gamer, and will remember it for a long while after.
9.0 Presentation
Great story, great characters, though there are some issues mentioned above which you may have chosen not to read. Plenty of extras too.
7.5 Graphics
Though appropriate for the cold, snow covered environment, some of the textures stand out as particularly bland, and jaggies mar the corners of many objects.
9.0 Sound
Almost perfect, the sound and voices will be remembered for long after you play.
8.5 Gameplay
Adventure and action, what's not to like? Some action sequences can be imprecise, though, and the controls can be frustrating.
8.0 Lasting Appeal
It's worth playing through this game again just to experience it, and also to collect any bonus points and conversation paths you missed.
8.4 OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)
