Little Big Adventure goes Mobile

Created by the talented people responsible for the original Alone in the Dark, 1994's Little Big Adventure (a.k.a. Relentless: Twinsen's Odyssey) was a true masterpiece. It looked beautiful in its colourful isometric glory, seamlessly combined adventure and action elements, sported a brilliant plot set in a unique cartoony dystopia, introduced us to some successfully innovative mechanics and even provided with more than a few excellent puzzles. Oh, and just like all masterpiece Little Big Adventure hasn't aged a day.

Today's good news then is that Little Big Adventure will be coming to both iOS and Android phones courtesy of retro-porting masters DotEmu. You can expect it to appear sometime during the fall of 2012 and hope the elegant controls have been elegantly adapted for touch controls. You can find out more here and even notice that The Last Express is also coming to an iPhone near you...

  2. Ahhh Little Big Adventure. Good times.

    I remember those elephant things that used to shoot at you, while you are trying to dodge them like a crazy person.
