As others said, beautiful game. Very understated, but still has a grand feel to it. I would also like to add that a large part of that was the music... coincidence? I think not :) It was also rather reminiscent of Shadow of the Colossus, which is definitely a good thing!

thats not how it goes. orpheus was not supposed to look back at eurydice until they were both out of the cave, but as soon as orpheus stepped out he could not wait to see her, looked back, she was still in the cave, she disappeared.

this is a good story:
Orpheus was the son of the Muse Calliope and therefore a grand musician. His wife was a dryad, Eurydice, who also attracted the attentions of Aristaeus. Aristaeus pursued her until she stepped on a poisonous snake and was forced into the Underworld. Orpheus was determined to retrieve his beloved. He journeyed down to the underworld, first charming Charon, ferryman of the dead, and lulling to sleep Cerberus, the three-headed watchdog. He encountered Hades, who initially refused to release Eurydice, but Orpheus's music so touched Persephone that she pleaded Orpheus's case, and Hades relented. There was one condition: that Orpheus not look back on their way out. Of course, Orpheus was worried that Eurydice was not behind him, and he fatefully glanced back to see if she was following him. She disappeared back into Hades, and he lost her forever. KEEP IT GOING

People who rip on the graphics must have been born in the 90's. This game would have made millions if released on the Atari. Annoying jumps but they are just like the annoying jumps all games used to have.

Okay, is it just me, or is Cerberus just way too random in what he does? I have him beat almost all the time, but then he does something completely random, throws off his "pattern", and it's game over. I'm finding this game more and more frustrating, something a game (entertainment), should not be...

The ending was so sad :( They both disapear because they are both ghosts Appleman. btw to beat Cerberus u gotta shoot his bottom. Music is very good although it kinda makes me wanna cry. Very good game 5/5 should make more like this. like a whole line of greek mythology ones.
