Hard on the heels of the recently reworked Amerzone, we now have this,
the next game released by Benoît Sokal back in the day (2002) and the first
of what became a series with three sequels.

Like Amerzone, I played the original back then and remember it positively,
but I haven’t played it since and apart from some general recollections the
detail escapes me. This review is therefore based solely on my experience
playing this version.

The game revolves around Kate Walker, a lawyer despatched to the European
town of Valadilène, a clockpunk out-of-the-way place, to secure the purchase
of the Voralberg automaton factory.

An untimely death adds an unforeseen complication and sets Kate off on a
journey the likes of which she could never have expected.

Thank you flotsam.
I’ve played the original more than once and enjoyed it.

Not sure, though, whether I fancy playing this re-mastered version as well rolleyes

(Thanks Draclvr.)

Thank you very much for the review, flotsam! Much appreciated. wave

I have no particular desire to play a remastered version of this game, but I am sure that many will enjoy it.

And thank you too, Drac. smile

Thanks flotsam (and Drac)! I love the original and have played it three times. I hope to play it again in the future but I will try out this Remastered version first and I know I'll grump about it and make you all crazy, so I apologize for that right now. smile

Until now, I have never disagreed with one of Flotsam's review. Sadly. I have also never been as disappointed in a game as I am with "Syberia Remastered." The visuals were generally stunning, Nothing else was improved much from the original. The voice acting was, indeed, impressive, but that too was true of the original. This new game ran a bit awkwardly on my computer, so that was contributed to the list of irritations. I really was impressed by and enjoyed the remastered "Amerzone," and was, therefore, really looking forward to this game. Now, I doubt that I'll bother to finish it.


If all the people were heroes, there would be no one to watch the parades.
