This gives you some freedom to play as you like, but in certain areas you'll be forced to load from a previous save in order to complete a portion. Overall, the game is a lot of fun. There are small annoyances here and there, but nothing that caused me too much grief. I enjoyed my time with Evil Islands and, while not totally original, was still a lot of fun. Good graphics, the environment is quite detailed an organic-looking.
Characters are less detailed but are still well done.
Sound effects are good, but the voice acting leaves much to be desired. Gameplay is a lot of fun, easy to learn, although touchy in spots. Once I became accustomed with it, I was hooked. Copyright 2001 Electric Games. All rights reserved worldwide.
