I don't usually hate a game, but I found this one awful. For some reason I thought there was going to be voices. I played for about a half hour. I had to uninstall it. It looked good,but that wasn't enough for me.

It's been stated here a few times, there are no voices. Sorry you didn't like it, I thought it was awesome.

That is exactly how I felt minstrum. I did not miss the voices at all, I'm not sure they would have sounded like I would have liked anyways.

I absolutely LOVE this game! It's quite unique, not like any I have played before. I recommend it highly!

Thanks flotsam for the great review! For the fist time in a game the lack of voice did not bother me at all. The subtitles where great (in french anyway) and sufficient. One of the best awsome game I have played in a long time. I am very sensitive when it comes to design in a video game. The design are crucial to me. Those hugarians they are extraordinary. I find the design a cross between Dali, Bosh, Soutine and German expresionnist. Great art!!!!! I have used an excellent completed walkthrough through U-Tube.

A nice description cyanne - and in my view any voices would have to have been truly excellent not to detract from the experience. Many a game has been spoiled by poor voices.
Quantity has a quality all of its own
