lol i bea this then ass soon as i hit back to find anothe game it has a badge, awesome game as soon as i saw the ghost i knew it was Orpheus. I do understand eveything in the game but kinda dont get why he sees himself and disappears, only thing i can think of is he is having another dream like he does in the myths befoe he ACTUALLY goes to hades.

It was alright, but there are MUCH better platformers out there that are harder, smoother, and even still in pixel style. I'm talking to you, Mega Man 9. It's interesting, but I can't say that it stands out in any awesome way. 3/5.

THIS GAME IS NOT FOR STUPID PEOPLE. Jeez, how come all these people can't piece together a simple story without someone hitting them over the head and reading it to them while showing them the pictures. This game is so awesome, yet it has made me realize just how much I hate the amount of ignorance on the internet.

Rip off. Got my honey all the way home without turning back like a tool and then she didn't come back. Don't make me all Kratos on the rest of the gods too.

The dog is Cerburus. OMG EPIC GAME! Nice catch nowostawky, its the first thing I thought of when I heard the tittle, poor Orpheus. As he was leaving the underworld he heard a noise behind him and turned around. His wife then was draged back by Hades. I think this game is translates the moral of the story perfectly. It leaves me satisfied but makes me ponder. Will I see more of my favorite legends in video games like this. Anything more stylistic than this would ruin the story. Optimus ludus!

ummmmmmm so i get some things in the ending like that is him...but who is the ghost...how did he end up back at the cemetary regardless that he was with the ghost and...most importantly,why does the ghost leave if you look back then at the ending the guy with the ghost and the ghost wither away?

Nice challenge!
Not unbeatable, but still challenging enough to make a player feel good inside once they get past a screen.
(I think it's a good sign when a game can give the player the feeling of satisfaction, without a little box appearing at the bottom of the screen stating "Achievement ******" or adding some form of virtual currency to a virtual repository...)

great game, another fine example that it doesn't take 'realistic facial movement' and superior graphics to tell an interesting story through video games love it, and want to see more of it!

How come u die when u see it?

how come u both dissolve at the end?
