I played it a little bit on release and only got around to finishing it over a decade later. First off: as someone who enjoyed the mainline series a lot, I was just a little bit disappointed that a series known for its varied stage designs with all manner of gimmicks had you wandering samey-looking corridors with samey-looking designs in this game.

That said, there was so much charm that I can give it a pass for that. It's amazing how much they were able to imbue a previously established character with his own personality and a fresh mythos. The setting, dialogue and rogues gallery were pitch perfect and made me really love playing this game!
