PC Gamer UK gave this game about 30-40% in case anyone's interested. Haven't seen much information about it so thought it might be worth giving people a headsup.

Game zone gave 7,5/10 (http://pc.gamezone.com/gzreviews/r22923.htm) and it's a good review that underline all the deep features of this game (quotation: "This is a thinking person's adventure who really feels like getting enveloped into a title".)

There are many different opinions about Etrom. You can find many info on the official website www.etrom.net (see also the player's feedback on it).

You can play the demo and read (and "feel") the story on the game's journal and/or on the official website.

Anyway the best way is always to judge yourself.

Yeah, there are a few Italian review sites who've covered the game as well and gave it marks in the mid-upper 70's.  I personally think some of the reviews are too harsh, but I can see why they're marking down. Of course, a new version is now available which addresses some of the stuff mentioned in the reviews (the demo is based on v1.0).

Cheers for the review link, will check it out. Nice to actually have some feedback on here about a game other than the GCs.

I'm more than happy to talk about Etrom here.

GCs is a great game, but there are many other games here that deserve attention.

As I said before see also the official website (and forum)(http://www.etrom.net/)!
