DESCRIPTION

Originally released to European audiences as Out of This World, Another World is a platform puzzler that was met with a lot of praise from the press and public. The background story is negligible as the focus of the game is entirely upon action and thinking, requiring players to use their head as well as their itchy trigger fingers. Stuck in the shoes of a man who's trapped upon an alien world with no apparent way to get home, players must survive the monstrous denizens of the land and overcome the terrifying obstacles that lie in their path.

Most of the player's time is spent running and jumping from place to place, occasionally having to attack, but it is necessary to think before acting in this game. If actions are not properly timed or played out it means certan disaster, so you'll wind up having to try many scenes over and over to finally complete them. An enhanced twin of this game exists on Super Nintendo as well. ~ Scott Steinberg, All Game Guide
