It is a platformer with puzzle-solving elements, focusing on the portrayal of a weak, underpowered character in a grim and hostile world, who has to rely on his cunning to outwit enemies and overcome hazards. The game has pre-rendered background graphics and uses CG movies of similar style to advance the story between the levels. The main character Abe is almost completely helpless: he cannot use weapons and is usually instantly killed by his brutal enemies if he confronts them directly. For this reason, most of the game involves careful exploration, timed movement, sneaking, and outsmarting the foes through various means: throwing stones to confuse them, luring them into traps, etc. Abe can run, jump, climb, tiptoe, crouch, and roll; in most areas these actions are essential to his survival. A few stages involve Abe riding a large animal known as Elum. Abe's only special power is chanting, which he can use to stun certain enemies for a while or possess them. When Abe possess an enemy he gains his abilities: for example, possessing the body or a ferocious Slig allows the player to shoot from his machine gun, communicate with other creatures of his kind, and even commit suicide, clearing the way for Abe. 85 /100 11 Tekken 3 1997 · 553 beoordelingen 84 /100 12 The Curse of Monkey Island 1997 · 320 beoordelingen 84 /100 13 Riven: The Sequel to Myst 1997 · 89 beoordelingen 83 /100 14 Age of Empires 1997 · 675 beoordelingen 83 /100 15 Broken Sword: The Smoking Mirror 1997 · 163 beoordelingen 83 /100 16 Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back 1997 · 527 beoordelingen 83 /100 17 Final Fantasy Tactics 1997 · 130 beoordelingen 83 /100 18 Quake II 1997 · 325 beoordelingen 83 /100 19 Blood 1997 · 167 beoordelingen 82 /100 20 Worms 2 1997 · 95 beoordelingen 81 /100 21 Tomb Raider II 1997 · 324 beoordelingen 80 /100 22 Grand Theft Auto 1997 · 489 beoordelingen 80 /100 23 Carmageddon 1997 · 185 beoordelingen 80 /100 24 Turok: Dinosaur Hunter 1997 · 91 beoordelingen 78 /100 25 MDK 1997 · 107 beoordelingen 77 /100 26 Doom 64 1997 · 107 beoordelingen 76 /100 27 Fighting Force 1997 · 86 beoordelingen 74 /100 28 Shadow Warrior 1997 · 378 beoordelingen 73 /100 29 Yoshi's Story 1997 · 110 beoordelingen 73 /100 30 Need for Speed 2 1997 · 137 beoordelingen 71 /100 31 Mortal Kombat 4 1997 · 200 beoordelingen 69 /100 32 Broken Sword 2 - The Smoking Mirror 1997 · 83 beoordelingen 69 /100 33 POSTAL 1997 · 244 beoordelingen 56 /100 34 Dungeon Keeper 1997 · 179 beoordelingen 10 /100
