As a HUGE fan of the NES port, THIS REMAKE IS AMAZING. Puzzles have changed, so don't think that having the original or NES games memorized will help you. There are tutorials for beginners, new rooms, more challenges in harder modes. Some puzzles in Master mode are already solved for you in Apprentice mode. I've found myself utterly stuck in some places, and in other places it's just "man, use everything on everything else and see what sticks."

If you liked the feel of the original, there's so much more. New things just everywhere. New places to explore. New ways to solve old puzzles, some that still harken back to their original solutions while managing to be different. (You'll see what I mean when you have to freeze the lake.) For those interested in the lore, MAN has that EVER been expanded. You will interact with Lakmir. You will learn about the Circle Of Twelve. There is so much more depth and richness to this reimagining.

If you don't like point-and-click, exploration-type games, well, this isn't for you. For those of us with fond memories of the original and want more depth to it, then it's a grand thing that your adventures have begun here. ;)
