First off, the game wouldn't run - I found out quickly that the application properties needs to be turned onto Windows 7 Compatibility. After that, game works normal.

I am a big Planet of the Apes fan. Glad I finally gave this a try. It's not really a game - it's watching a story and sometimes feeling you're a part of it. However, I'm giving this a 7 out of 10. Completed in 4 hours. Grab your popcorn.

The story is fantastic, very edge of my seat and begging to see what happens next to the beloved characters on both the ape and human side. The graphics very fantastic - there were scenes and movements where I had to second guess if this was a live action film or gaming development due to the realism.

Possible Spoiler ahead.

I have some cons, starting with I felt majority of my decisions or swaying the ape/human decisions didn't do anything. I felt certain things happen regardless of what I chose. Then in the final chapter, I made a respectable decision that ruined the ending. I had to replay the entire last chapter to go the other way - and I didn't like the outcome, yet it got the result I needed the first go around. Thus, the ending both times I absolutely did not agree with.

My favorite thing about the game was that the ape and human situation was completely yin and yang to each other. Meaning the ape leader was wanting war, yet the tribe wanted peace. And the Leader of the humans wanted peace, yet the town wanted war. A real conflict that almost turned everyone into war, yet heroes had to find a way to save the day.

It was such an incredible adventure and journey for 4 hours. Yet getting to the finish line felt....what was even the point of all this.

Really hope to see more Ape storyline, maybe future gaming etc.
