will it run under win 7?
The most artistic adventure I've played in years!!!
One of the best Point' n' click I've ever played.
A unique atmosphere, gloomy, sad and poetic.
In addition, the puzzles are interesting and fairly complex.
I can see only one flaw: the adventure is so short.
I dont agree with the reviewer.
For me, OutCry / Sublustrum was one of the most thought-provoking games Ive played in a long time. It feels like an Tarkovsky movie - beautiful, moving, ambiguous.
While far from a perfect game, I did ultimately enjoy Outcry. I turned off the artsy graphical "effect" that makes everything look fuzzy, and that helped with getting around. But in general I liked the hard science fiction quality of the story. Some of the puzzles were a bit inscrutable, but my only real complaint is that the game was a bit short.
