Little Big Adventure / Relentless: Twinsen's Adventure Adeline Software International / Electronic Arts 1994

Without a doubt two of the most unique and revolutionary 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. The game was initially released in a CD-ROM version and sometime later in a floppy disk version; the CD-ROM version featured full motion video, music and speech whereas the floppy disk version has MIDI music files and still images to replace the videos. In Oct/2015 an Enhanced Edition was released with brand new features. New gameplay: adjustable throwing and jumping distance (visible trajectory), simplified sections, etc. Streamlined, easy-to-use interface with enhanced graphics specially redesign for this version. Tutorials at the start of the game. Dynamic ON/OFF hint system. Zoom feature to provide an overview of the scenes. Automatic save system, with return to the last checkpoint when you lose a life. 5 languages available: English, French, German, (voices and text) - Italian and Spanish (text only, voices in English). Full controller support. In 2022, Twinsen's Little Big Adventure Classic an Anniversary Update was released with: Language select in menu; Steam Achievements; Steam Cloud Saving; Controller Support; Input remapping; New Game+; Windowed Support; Hit by walls toggle on/off.
