2012.18: Back To The Future - Episode 1,2,3,4,5

Great scott! Some bits were terrible! Most bits were good, some bits were excellent. Two ways you are guaranteed to enjoy this game (1,2,3,4,5 collectively) are (1) You are a point and click nut [which I am] or (2) You LOVE Back To The Future. It stays very close to the source in feel and dialogue and all that. So huge kudos there.

It does have typical PnC genre frustrations but there is a hint system that has various stages and if you click "Need another hint" all the way, you get the solution. I had to use it in a couple of places because the solution was so left field.

Also worth mentioning are the set pieces. I won't spoil when they come but there are set pieces that put you in exciting and 'grand' situations which I found really refreshing.

Overall a fun ride that has it's many ups as much as it's downs;

7/10.
