Flashback: The Quest for Identity

Postby MrKite » Sat Apr 24, '21, 2:37 am

Wow, what an amazing looking game this was back when it was first released. A cartridge game with cutscenes that almost looked as if they were full motion video. I remember when I first played this it annoyed me because I had no idea how to play it or what to do, but in later years I appreciated it a lot more when I revisited it and figured it out. Even though I am still not very good at it.

I have never played this. I'll have to give it a go and see if my experience matches yours.

They had the re-release for the Nintendo Switch on sale at the eShop for $1.99 a while back, and I snagged it there while it was. It usually sells for $19.99 on there.
