Initially wasn't feeling this due to the voicework. Just felt stilted with the way the script was written. Not sure if the remake changed the script at all, but still... Regardless, you can change to old person mode with the press of a button and I honestly like having the pixel art more than the updated visuals. I'm curious if I'm the only one who enjoys them better without having ever played either version, but also I'm not actually that curious. But this game was great, specifically the first half. The process of exploration and puzzle-solving mixed together with a comedic script works quite well. There's a number of great jokes and clever scenarios created with the incredibly specific lore they crafted. I had a blast just roaming around and speaking to the many entertaining locals. The game is far less fun when you make it to the titular island, unfortunately, with puzzles becoming more obtuse and writing becoming much less engaging due to a lack of character interactions. It's a shame, but not necessarily surprising, since that first half was just so damn good. Either way, solid game, well worth a play. 4/6
