"When it comes to material as rich as this, the mind boggles with images of otherworldly vistas. In fantasy, it's anyone's guess what really lies at the center of the Earth. The version we see in this adventure game is only so-so. The graphics, much like everything else in the game, suffer from a total lack of "oomph." Some of the scenes in the game do in fact showcase a level of imagination, but these isolated pockets of eye candy can't salvage the drab look of the game. Character animation was also kept at a minimum. Many of the people you meet either don't move very much or shuffle about like half-frozen penguins when they do. It also would have been nice to see backgrounds with more animation, and not the static ones seen here with just a hint of movement."
