What starts off as a nice swim about quickly turns into some ****ed up shit about aliens nicking off with your dolphin chums and becomes some weird sadness tinged epic journey as you try and rescue your mates.
Oh and theres time travel and a pterodactyl, evil bastard sea spider crabs and psychotic eels.
A great game that takes an unusual premise and screws with your head.
It's bloody infuriatingly difficult too in the way old games used to be, you will be frustrated and you will die about a million times.
Luckily there is an easy save option on this edition or there would be absolutely no chance of completion.
So frustrating yet so addictive. I played this back in the day and thought i'd got pretty far, turns out it was the tip of the iceberg so to speak.
great game, it was strange how it was frustrating but at the same time it was very calming!
