Et des années plus tard, je ne puis que confirmer cet amer état de fait : Anachronox est davantage une caricature d'un Final Fantasy qu'un vrai jeu de rôle, tout en étant victime d'un level design affligeant qui oblige à des aller-retours incessants, d'un humour loufoque, limite débile et d'un système de combat bidon. Le jeu ne marche que sous 98 et est entièrement en rosbif, y compris au niveau des (interminables) dialogues.

Very unique and often forgotten RPG gem. Interesting characters, good story, lots of humor, JRPG style battle system, it's not flawless, butVery unique and often forgotten RPG gem. Interesting characters, good story, lots of humor, JRPG style battle system, it's not flawless, but it's definitely a memorable RPG experience worth playing through. 9/10

WasSeen its up on Steam...A game i've been gagging to get again. Game play wise one of the most intelligent and brilliant RPG's i've played. Was hampered by tons of bugs that ruined original game.But steam seems to fix its stuff to work on Steam so im hoping its all nicely patched to atleast the fan patch standard. cant recommend enough.Awesome game if a bit dated graphic wise. But the cartoon feel works in its favor. LOTS of replay value.

I've just played it recently, ten years after it's original release date, and it is one of the best games I've ever played. If you love story driven, epic in scope, RPG's with a variety of fascinating environments to explore, you'll love this game. And the humor, it's truly laugh out loud-able in more than a few occasions. Very well written and creative.
