Teeny Weeny Games has worked hard creating an accurate representation of the world and all its inhabitants. It was a foregone conclusion that it was going to be a point and click adventure. Having spent considerable time with the game, I can safely say that this is one of the best adaptations of a work of fiction I have ever come across.Īll the characters behave in a way that I'd expect them to (and I've read a fair number of Pratchett books in my time) and even the voices seem spot on. What if the developers do a Lord of the Rings on us and produce something that doesnt match our expectations? What if the characters dont look or act the way we expect them to? Wouldnt that be awful?įortunately, thanks to the intervention of Mr P himself, the chances of this being the case are pretty remote. There are people who are quite literally drooling at the prospect but, unfortunately, there are also fears about how close the game will be to the books. ![]() To say that the officially approved game based on the Discworld series is one of the most eagerly anticipated adventure games since Monkey Island 2 would probably be an understatement. There are few authors (especially British) who command such widespread appeal and chances are everyone has a strong opinion about Pratchetts work. What do you talk about? Have you read the new Pratchett book? is certainly something that has potential. The conversation has dried up and someone has already used the current favourite: Have you seen Pulp Fiction yet?. ![]() Imagine the scenario: youre down the pub with some people that you dont know very well, and the most terrible thing in the world has happened. Terry Pratchett books are one of the few things in life that you can strike up a conversation with anyone about. ![]()
