REVIEWS OF A QUIET WEEKEND
IN CAPRI "By the time you finish it, you'll feel like you know every inch of the Mediterranean island's quaint main village, from the small shops and restaurants to the breathtaking views of tree-covered cliffs and azure waters." -- The Washington Post (registration required) "Who wouldn't want to spend six weeks in a Mediterranean paradise, even if it's virtual?" -- Time "It’s great to see people trying new things, and putting the entire island of Capri into a game is certainly a challenge. Capri is more than worth the money...4.5/5" -- Game Industry News "...investment in artists has often come at the expense of writers, and computer stores are filled with adventure games that look good but play terribly...A Quiet Weekend In Capri bucks the trend." -- PC-Gaming "Think Myst but in a real location." -- Quandary "Capri is a unique game with its environments made up of photos of real places rather than polygon-rendered graphics. The Savareses captured virtually the entire public space of Capri on film in order to give gamers the full experience of being on the island. The grocery store that you walk into in the game is literally the same as the one that really exists on the island of Capri (down to the grocer who plays himself in the game). Navigating around the island requires use of a real map of Capri, such as you would use if you were actually a tourist." -- The Republic "This game is great in almost every way. It enthuses me that such quality adventures are being marketed...Final Grade: A" -- Just Adventure "...pleased to award A Quiet Weekend in Capri our coveted Gold Star." -- Four Fat Chicks "...the soundtrack to this game is worth the price of admission." -- GameBoomers "90/100" -- Adventure's Planet "...the scenery truly is magnificent, with breathtaking vistas wherever you look. Lush sound effects add to the feeling of realism, with things like the church bells ringing, birds chirping and dogs barking, and the sound of the ocean waves. And the delightful original music enhances it all, with evocative individual compositions that are played only in certain areas for heightened effect. You'll fall in love with Capri" -- Mr Bill's Adventureland "As you progress through the game you'll fall in love with the island, with its rocky precipices jutting out of the sapphire-hued sea, cobblestone streets and alleys, and flowing antiquated architecture...The game is accompanied by a full-length soundtrack...The compositions immediately evoke images of the Mediterranean, like something Furio from HBO's Sopranos would listen to." -- GameChronicles "Think Myst but in a real location." -- Quandary "...investment in artists has often come at the expense of writers, and computer stores are filled with adventure games that look good but play terribly...A Quiet Weekend In Capri bucks the trend." -- PC-Gaming |
