The Last Remnant Review

The Last Remnant is a next generation laserdisc game in the current generation of VHS gaming as we know it (VHS gaming). It is about seven camels on a quest for whipped cream to put on their brownies. In the opening cut scene (rumoured to have cost the studio money) we discover the evil Harold Haggs placing each brownie in the fridge without any sort of protective cling wrap, drying them of their rich, brownie HP restoring goodness.

When the camels come home that evening from a hectic two-steps-left-two-steps-right day at the market to their now completely ruined lives, they make various noises before meeting with the priest at the town fair. He informs them there is nothing he can do for the brownies, before giving the camels a complete history lesson about their once peaceful planet.

"There may be whipped cream spread lightly on the floor in the caves but the caves have monsters in them there has been an increase in monsters since about four seconds ago I fear they may attack the town one day it's dangerous to go alone tackle this"

After defeating the Charlie McFootball, the camels carefully peel his skin off and tape it to their faces; the perfect disguise to fool the town guard who is under direct orders from Charlie McFootball to only let Charlie McFootball in and out of town. As a result of this, everyone including the guard was murdered several days ago by the guard after he commited suicide. The camels stare at each other with passion and make more noises. Will they discover whipped cream won't do much? Will th

The game is essentially played like a video game, much like a mix between S.T.U.N Runner and Zork. In various situations things will happen and you'll need to press buttons on the controller. For the most part only one button is needed, but it is sold separately. The graphics are displayed on the television, but you will need a television that is capable of displaying graphics otherwise you won't be able to appreciate the beauty of the graphics on your television. It supports a render display of up to 1080snowboarding gigaflops, but the frame rate takes a slight dip here, going backwards until you eventually reach the title screen.

The music has been composed by Gertrude (of Robin's Basket Factory of Desire and Running Moon Defender X: Planet Rebirth fame) and sounds just like music, it's stunning and suits the need for music very well. The original Japanese voice acting has thankfully been kept, with English-friendly Japanese subtitles for everyone to follow along with. Camels sound cooler in their native tongue.

If you've ever played The Last Remnant, I recommend you give The Last Remnant a shot.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
