IGN: Syberia Review

You have to commend Tetraedge for their effort in porting Syberia to the Nintendo DS. The very fact that they somehow managed to shrink a complex narrative and an intriguing, beautiful world onto a handheld in the first place is an impressive feat. Unfortunately, the qualities that made Syberia the critical success that it was six years ago didn't make the transition fully intact. The game's narrative and puzzles have been abridged, the DS specific controls are sloppy at best and the graphical degradation hurts what was one of the PC version's strongest selling points. Syberia is a gaming experience that really shouldn't be missed, just make sure you're playing on the PC where the game truly belongs.

Presentation - 7.0
Graphics - 4.5
Sound - 4.0
Gameplay - 4.5
Lasting Appeal - 5.0
Overall - (Nintendo DS, Syberia) 4.4/10
