Its stylings and conventions might spring from a simpler time, but its presentation and the panache with which Almost Human delivers it as allows it to stand toe-to-toe with some of its big-budget contemporary cousins. New weapons and creative new races and classes augment the combat experience, and the shift out of the dungeons and onto the overland of Nex bestows a sense of exploration the original lacked. Only the sheer number of opaquely designed puzzles threaten to spoil the experience, but even that qualification is assuaged by clues that always lie in wait if you're willing to look for them.
