“This is really one of the first with ambient sound, imagery, background … this is one of the first ones that did it and did it well. … There’s not clutter everywhere.”
“The graphics are holistic in the sense that they blend very easily together. There’s nothing you don’t need to be focused on while you’re in that piece of the story. … It did an amazing job of conveying the feeling that you’re there, almost to the point that you’re smelling the smoke the way it’s described.”
