While the game is one of the best point-and-click adventures as a standalone product, it really comes into its own when you hear the sound. Its no secret that Psygnosis and Teeny Weeny have invested an awful lot of time and money in creating one of the best aural experiences so far in a computer game. And when you consider some of the talent used, its obvious that this is going to be something special. With ex-Monty Python and all-round good egg Eric Idle playing the part of Rincewind the wizard and the remaining 77 characters all acted by voice talents like Kate Robbins of Spitting Image fame , Rob Brydon one of the UKs hottest up-and-coming voice talents along with Tony Robinson and Jon Pertwee, its safe to say that this is an extremely professional sounding project.
While previous talkie games have been of a good quality - although many of them have sounded simply like a bunch of people sitting around talking along to a game-Discworld is different. The quality of the voices and the talent of the actors used has produced something more akin to a radio play rather than a simple voice-over for a game. The variety of characterisations and the wit with which the characters are played are truly superb.
Okay, so the production is fantastic and its a bloody good adventure game, but does it really capture the spirit of the books? People will buy it on its strengths as a game, but chances are there are more people who will want it simply because its a Pratchett game. To be frank, I must admit that theyve done a bloody good job Pratchett-wise. The humour is in style, the use of voice is inspired and, most importantly, the game draws inspiration from the whole series of books.
All the locations youve read about are there, as are most of the characters and many of the situations. Its definitely one of those games that has you jumping up and down and going Ooh, ooh, yes Many of the scenarios are recognisable, but situations arent duplicated from the books. Thankfully, there are very few moments in the game where just a sound knowledge of the novels will see you through. Teeny Weeny hasnt fallen into that trap.
Its not often that a game comes along that is brilliantly scripted, well executed and superbly produced. Discworld is such a game. The artwork throughout is of an extremely high quality, the characters are all drawn in a convincing cartoon style in places they are reminiscent of the characters from Asterix and the voice acting is brilliant.
To be honest, I cant really find many faults with this game. Obviously, if you dont like Pratchett, you wont really be into the humour, but if you dont at least snigger at some of the gags, you either dont have a sense of humour or have recently died.
The overall quality of this is almost certainly down to the fact that such a wide range of talent has been employed.
The project has been overseen by Terry Pratchett himself. Teeny Weeny has made use of its best artists, musicians and v programmers, and the actors used are all seasoned professionals. Not only is this a superb game in its own right, but it will be something to which future talkie-adventures will be compared.

Discworld is an amazing experience as are the novels but there is a reason why the file size is so small - sound files for a game that has complete voice acting officially by the amazing Eric Idle.
The good news is that the entire game IS subtitled by default. So you can enjoy the experience, but without audio, you're truly missing out.
