How It Went On The Samsung NC10:

This game was made for netbooks, which is incredible foresight on the developers part considering it was released 4 years ago. Installing the game was a snap, just the standard steam affair. On first run the game is windowed and at 800x600, but you can change it to match your netbook resolution at full screen and full graphic settings without any hindrance to performance. Controls are great, no mouse used at all! Just the arrow keys w, a, s, d and enter, so you don’t even have to worry about a mouse.

Not much else to say performance wise, I just think this game is fantastic for pick up and play gaming, which is precisely what you’d want on a netbook. The great visuals and sounds make this game a joy to play.

Is it Worth it?

£6 and 36MB disk space, the only question is “do you have enough time?”
