The story is pretty good and there is a lot of background in the form of books to read as you work your way through the game. It's too bad the game mechanics get in the way of this rather than helping it along. Graphics, Sound, etc. Homeland certainly doesn't look like a big budget production, and it isn't. The graphics can charitably be described as dated though they do the job.
Animation is reasonably good, though it uses very few frames per object.
Indoor areas are passable looking in a 1990 sort of way, however the outdoor areas are blocky and uniformly unattractive. Music and sound effects are similarly low budget. Combat sounds are a few swooshes and grunts for the most part. Music varies depending on your location, but there are not that many themes. They are also short, so you have them memorized pretty quickly.
