Now for something different for Christmas:- A gem of a game. Not very long, but a great story, and gorgeous graphics. Ranks up there with the original "Longest Journey" and other great adventure classics, imho. Best played with a Xbox360 controller, as you need to control two characters at times simultaneously, trivial with the joysticks. (Default Keyboard.. Old Brother: WASD+Spacebar, Young Brother: Cursor Keys+Right Control) Available on Amazon and Steam @$7.49. If you buy it from Amazon before Dec 31, you will automatically get a $5 credit towards a January purchase of any of Amazon's "2013 Editor's Choice " of Download Games. Part of an Amazon Comment from an action player :- ----------------------------------------------- " Let me start by saying that I am an avid PC gamer. I build gaming rigs specifically for games like Battlefield 3 & 4. So I am used to playing high demanding / graphics intense games. I also like FPS shooters in general (Counterstrike/COD etc). This game is nothing like what I am used to playing. It's got a playfully fun, exciting, scary, and sad story all rolled up in to one. Graphics are cartoonish sure, but it really goes along with the game and (The Never Ending Story) style scifi adventure... Sure it's set in a totally made up language (that I know of) but you don't need to understand what they are saying. The story and actions happening at the moment explains everything. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ There is a Wiki on the game. However, DO NOT spoil it for yourself by reading the Plot section of the Wiki !!!! Happy Christmas, John Lewis

Correction, now only $5.99 (60% off) on Amazon.com, still $7.49 (50% off) on Steam. John Lewis
