Thanks Marian. I received an email regarding this and knew I'd find a post here! I guess I'm going to have to get the game now  . 2nd Edit. Well, I wishlisted it and watched the video. I'm quite sure I won't understand the story and don't know if I'll like the gameplay but I'll buy the game at some point anyway.

I now have the original disk release plus two "tweaked" for modern machine releases and now also this re-mastered version from GOG !! [A bit excessive if you ask me  ] Just love the game ....

There is no such thing as a bit excessive where games are concerned Mad  Is this the game where there was a bomb puzzle that "modern" machines didn't give you time to complete without a slo-mo facility?
Quantity has a quality all of its own

Yes. There IS a difficult bomb scene in the game, flotsam, which I've always had to attempt several times whichever one of my versions I am playing .... including this latest one from GOG  But I confess I can be a total Wimp when it comes to action sequences in Adventure games

You can never have too many versions of a great game, you should see the number of versions I have of Final Fantasy Vii, Viii & IX. Were the graphics re-mastered in this version? If so, I may pick up another copy as well.

The graphics are definitely an improvement on the original release, InlandAZ  [In her post to start this thread Marian provided a link to the site - which describes exactly what has been done - and it's very informative.]

It's point and click.
I'm not seeing the remastered aspect of this updated release. I have the older version I play from time to time and it looks the same...

Well, for me, there is a definite improvement when compared to the graphics of the original release  [And I am also re-finding-out just how easy it is to die !!  ]
