ANOTHER WORLD.
Hello this is O.T.M. writing another text for the D.B.A.
I have got a summary for you from another nice game.
This game is called Another World. You are a professor, and your
going to your lab, with your Ferrari. You step in the lab's
elevator, and you go down. You pass the security code, and the
computer looks at your DNA. You are greeted by the computer,
and it recognizes your Ferrari key.
But now you go to work. Your sitting behind your three
dimensional monitor, and you start your program on which you have
been working on for so long. You change some parameters, and you
drink something while your working. Outside the weather is
getting rougher. Then the lightening strikes the lab. It goes
through the elektronic system of lab, and Baaaaang! You're
vanished of the earth, and sucked into another dimension.
Here the game starts. (Nice intro isn't it?)
The computer loads level one in, and you are asked to change
disks. After you have done that, you have to change disks again.
This is probably a kind of password check.
I will tell you how to play level one later on. First I will tell
you something about the game. It is a 3d adventure. It is a
french game, but there is only some French text in the intro. I'm
not quite sure if there are more French texts at the end, this is
because I didn't play the whole game. This is because I didn't
had the time, and at the end I lost the interest for the game.
The thing that makes this game so special is that it has good
animations.I can not tell you anything about the music, simply
because there isn't. The sound-effects are very good, but they
are very soft. You have to turn the volume button of your
TV/Monitor, very high, before you can hear every sound the
computer is producing.
The animations and the graphics are very good, and also very
fast.
Another thing that makes this game so special is that it is very
realistic, you have to do everything by yourself. For instance
in level 2 your put in a cage. You have to move your body so that
the cage will swing. The swinging of the cage goes smooth, but if
you are killed in level 2 you end up again in the cage and you
have to start all over again. This is very frustrating, and it
takes a lot of time.
This is one thing which will bore most of the players, including
me.
At first it all looks very great, and if you have solved a few
problems it is a nice game, but if you have played it for a while
you will be bored, and you will do something else.
The music and sound effects could be done a bit better I think,
but it is still a nice game. If you like adventures, then you
should have this game, because it has a new set up, and it has
a good storie.
The programmers of Delphine Software have done a good job. Maybe it
was better if they translated the texts into english, but there are
so few that I think it doesn't matter much.
HOW TO PLAY ANOTHER WORLD.
When you are in the water in level one you have to swim up as
soon as you can, because else you will be caught by a kind of
monster. When your out of the water you have to go right, and
kick the black kreeping monsters. You can kick by holding the
jostick down and push button or else just push button. If you
have killed all the monsters in the screen, including the ones
on the sealing (Watch out for them, because they can sneek up on
you!) except for the small animal that walks you can go to the
next screen. There you must kill all the monsters again as in
the previous screen. And again you go right. Suddenly you will
meet an roaring black animal which will try to kill you. You have
run to the left as fast as you can. You have to do that until you
have passed the water, then when you're in the next screen you
will see a kind of rope hanging of the mountain. Jump into
it. The creature can not catch you. When the rope brakes you
will be swinged into the screen where you came out of the water.
Immediatly you have to run right again. ( I forgot to tell you
how to run: push button and move the stick into the right
direction.)
Don't stop running because else the lion will catch you. You
will be stopped at a moment by an alien. He shoots the lion, and
the computer will do the rest, enjoy the animation!!!!
Level 2
You are captured by the aliens. You're in a cage with another
alien. At the back you will see aliens work. A guard is whatching
you. You have to swing the cage left and right until it falls on
the guard. When you are out of the cage, and the guard is dead,
you must take his pistol. You follow the alien and shoot the
other aliens who shoot you. Watch out if your fellow alien is
shot, then you can die asewell, because you need him. Watch out
for aliens who shoot you in the back. When your fellow alien is
busy with the security code you must turn around, and make a
shield with your gun. You can do that by holding the button down
until there appeares a white ball at the end of your gun.
You have to reload it from time to time, but don't use too much
of it's fire-power. When the alien is done with the security
code you have to follow him to the elevator. You both go down as
far as it goes. You get off the elevator, and go left. you fire
at the wall ( a normal shot. ) you go both to the elevator again
and go up. At the first stop you get off, and go left. You shoot
the wall. (Hold down the button till a big ball appeares.) You
go left, and stand on the hole, push the stick down, and run
left again. Stand under the hole, and push the stick up. Go a
bit left, and wait for the alien. The alien will put you through
an hole.
Level 3
This is very simple. You role to the left, until you fall, then
you role to the right, you fall, you role to the right, you fall,
you role to the left, and fall into level four.
Level 4
You go through the door on the left. You are lifted up, and your
gun will be reloaded.
You go to the right, and blast the three walls. You run further
to the right, until you see an enemy. Step out of the doorstep,
and shoot him. Walk to the right, until you are in the screen
with the edge. Take a forward run, and jump upon a lower edge.
Blast on the lower edge the wall away. and walk into it.
You have reached level five, but I don't know exactly what to
do in level five, so I won't tell you how far I came, because
what I do can be wrong.
At last I will give you the level codes.
LEVEL 1 : EDJI <--------- THIS IS FOR SKIPPING THE INTRO
LEVEL 2 : HICI
LEVEL 3 : FLLD
LEVEL 4 : LIBC
LEVEL 5 : CCAL
