As Twinsen, a young Quetch, the player is on a long journey to release your home world from the domination of the evil doctor Funfrock.
The game combines action and adventure. You must talk to other characters, and collect and use objects. On the action side, there are platform jumps. Twinsen can move in different ways such as 'Sneak' mode and 'Aggressive' mode, to deal with foes in different ways.
The game universe is rendered with characters in full 3D, and the environment using isometric graphic tiles.
WOW…How can I even start to describe this game? Well to be honest, I can't. At least not just by playing it. To tell the truth I had to look around the net for various other reviews for this game. I needed to see if they managed to catch the magnificence of Little Big Adventure in their review, but no-one had even come close to give the game its justified glory. And I can understand why. This game is without a moment of doubt the BEST game to ever be released in 1994!
There is no way I can actually describe the quality of this game, you HAVE to download it and try it out for yourself. The only thing about the game I can actually detail is the plot.
You play Twinsen, a young man who lives in the strange world of Twinsun. The planet is trapped between two suns, thereby the name. You are a member of the race called Quetch, or humanoids as we would call them. Along these there live three other races; the Rabbibunnies (rabbitoids), Sphereoids (sphereoids) and Grobos (Elephantoids).The game starts off with a video in which Twinsen has a dream proclaiming him to free the world from the tyrannic rule of Dr. Funfrock. When he openly starts to talk about his dream, the dictator throws him in an asylum and kidnaps his wife. Twinsen must not only escape the asylum, but he must also stay out of the way from Dr. Funfrock's soldiers, rescue his wife and free the planet. It does not look good. During the game you will make friends and connections all over the world, allies that will help you to accomplish your mission.
Last I think it is nessecary to include some hints about the game.You control Twinsen using four different modes: Normal, Athletic, Aggressive & Discrete, and with an Action Button (Space Bar). Normal mode is used for walking and talking with people. Athletic is used for running and Jumping. Aggressive is used for fighting, and Discrete is used for sneaking. You will need to master the usage of all four modes in order to complete the game. In order to switch through the different modes you can either press and hold Ctrl or press their hot-keys. F1, F2, F3 and F4.
I think this is enough to get you going! Hopefully you will enjoy the game.
Without a doubt two of the most unique and revolutionary old games ever, Little Big Adventure 1 and 2 are charming isometric SVGA adventures that deftly weave action, RPG (spellcasting), and traditional adventure into a wholly engrossing gaming experience. Intuitive interface, vibrant graphics, and wonderful and unique plots make them a worthy successor to Alone in The Dark, designed by the same team. The games are almost perfect, except that late-game combat sequences are a tad too difficult and will frustrate adventure gamers who are reflexes-impaired. Help a young Quetch Twinsen save his planet today!
This game has some popularity because of the excellent graphics that are used. Nice 3D polygon style surroundings, with shadows and stuff. You play Twinsen a fellow who is on a journey to save his planet from the evil dr. Funfrock. Some fool who controls the planet with clones and using teleport machines. Nice thing about the game is that you can set you character Twinsen in 4 'action' modes.
One of the most unique arcade/adventure games ever made. The animation is just fantastic and very funny as well. The way this whole game is animated is really great and even if the game wasn't good (the game is good) it would still be fun to look at. Especially when you run into a wall or something similar.
The story in the game is quite simple. You have to rescue your girlfriend because evil elephants (yes I said elephants) have captured and imprisoned her. You will have to find the way to get her back as soon as possible. The best feature in the game is that you can change mode like athletic mode, normal mode, aggressive mode etc.
