I pre-ordered it and got it on the day of release. I played it for a while, and got quite far but eventually gave up for a while. Yes, its very original, yes it has immense promise/potential, yes it is funny and good fun to play for a while, and yes it is probably worth buying.
However
,there are a number of negatives, the game gets a bit tedious and repetative after a while, the load times are very long, as are the save times as you get further into a level and finaly, the learning curve needs a lot of work (1st level = training, 2nd level = easy (and you have help), 3rd level = easy, but no help, 4th level = nearly impossible, 5th level = I don't know, and probably don't want to
)
I would say buy it, if just for the fun value, and im sure youll enjoy it
Well, thats my verdict and my opinion (and I think a well balanced summing up of the game aswell
)
oh and ogopogo, there is now a patch for the game at
