Discworld Humor on your PSX

When I first saw Discworld I in stores, I knew I had to have it. It was hilarious, and you got to see all your fav characters walking and talking. However, the problem was the game was too difficult, and the solutions didn't make a whole lot of sense (which meant a lot of clicking everything together until something works). This game, the sequel, has improved over the first immensly. Instead of a blank "That doesn't work", the game gives you little hints to go on. The animation is better, the humor more frequent, and everyone's fav character, Death, who TALKS LIKE THIS, drops in several times.

I loved it!

This is a great game for fans of Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. Like the first animated Discworld game you assume the role of Rincewind, forced against his will to yet again save the Disc, this time from a lack of Death. This is much better than the first game because the various puzzles make a bit more sense and you are given clues as to what items might be used for. This game has many apperances by various Discworld characters. Its a great adventure type of game. I have played the PC version but I'm sure the Playstation version is just as good.

Great characters and humour, but BAD game!.

When I got this game it had great 2-D animation, charcaters, fantastic voice acting from Eric Idle and pretty funny humour. Although the game has a Monty Phython feel and a fantasy atmosphere, the game it self is just not good at all. It's basically a point and click game. You use a cursor to click on things with the awkwardness of the Playstation controller (a mouse that comes with the game would be much better rather than buying a Playstation mouse). Gameplay is very frustrating and slow. The puzzles are VERY HARD, for example: there is one part in the game where you have to find bee's wax candles. First you collect a pepper, then you get inscence, then you find a piece of cloth off a dress, then you go to the University Gardens and grate the pepper over the flowers, then as the bees collect the pollen from the flowers, they soon start to get hot and produce wax, then you put the cloth that you found on Rincewind (the character you play), And then finally you use the inscence to smoke out the bee's hive to collect the wax to bring back to the candle maker to make BEE'S WAX CANDLES. This is very tiring gameplay and requires a lot of patients. All of the gameplay throughout the game is like what I have written above. There are no hints and you have to merely quess where and how to get these clues. It soon gets very frustrating when you don't have a clue of how to capture a SMELL. There are strategy guides to this game, but in order to clear the bloodly thing you have to rely on the strategy guide which is no fun. This game gets very boring and tiring too quickly and soon the player looses interest.

Note: Get this game is good only if your interested in this kind of stuff, otherwise, avoid and save your money which I didn't.
I gave this game 2 stars because it was interesting (for a while) and its humour is very funny in places. I'm tired from all that typing, i'm going for a pint. Seeya.
