  • Complete walkthrough of the 20th Anniversary edition version of the classic Amiga/Commador game. I made a couple of mistakes but I had recorded too much of the game to re-record so I apologise. I forgot what you had to do at some points but figured since I work it out quickly and complete the whole game in 36 minutes this 1-take version would suffice.

    This is like the biggest masterpiece of gaming, period. Imagine playing games like first Prehistoric, and thinking wow, that's a nice game.
    And all of sudden, you play this, 3D intro, gun, shield, charged gun, incredible animations, movements, destroying objects, solving puzzles, physics, water, swimming, a pal fighting with you, naked butts .... all running smooth on sluggish 286 @ 10Mhz (filling Dune harvester did took like 30 minutes on 286) and game fitted on one floppy disc.
    Just incredible.

      You said it, man! It's been not just a pleasure, but a honor being in our twenties in late 80s and 90s, witnessing the world becoming "digitalized" so to speak, while this of course also happened consequently within the world of video games; a world which all in all today is what it is thanks (also) to those very times, I guess. I do not have regrets, I wouldn't go back to that period even if it was somehow possible, I like to remember and have so many amazing memories, and I feel proud and lucky of being a 55 year old guy who still enjoys video gaming nowadays like if I was a teen ager! Hope you feel happy the same as I do. Cheers.

    Part of this game's unique visual appeal for me is it actually feels like you're playing in some scifi artwork, like some old 50s posters or something. As such I actually feel like the game still holds up if you view it from an "artsy" style. I bought this game for my SNES in 1995 and even though I was a big DOOM, Descent and Dark Forces player I was blown away by this game's graphics and art style. Still am.

This game has never left my mind as a kid but I could never figure out how to beat it, but the story seemed so intergang and it was so immersive I wanted to know more about the world but I was sad as I could never get past the first bit

    Oh dear lord. The hours I spent playing this on my Super Nintendo, only it was called, "Out of this world." I still have both the game and the still working Super Nintendo console. I completed the game and made a "walk through" video of it too, recorded on VHS no less, but lost it YEARS ago. You found shortcuts I never did and you finished it in half the time it took me. Well done. Thanks for bringing back a great memory of a game I both loved and hated at the same time. haha I also played and completed two other similar SNES games. "Flashback" and the oriignal, "Prince of Persia" too. Those three games were my all time favs on the SNES platform. MY TUBA!!!!! LOL
