Very good, but somewhat esoteric [Posted on 2003-07-19] I bought Prisoner of War for five dollars on a whim, thinking I might give it a chance. I'm more of a casual gamer, I don't own any console systems and occasionally play games on my PC. Usually, I go in for strategy games such as Civilization, so this was a bit of a departure. I was not disappointed. The game encompasses the elements of espionage and timing in the noir mold. You do everything from pulling heists at night to decieving guards during the day. I was surprised by the exceedingly British flavor of the game, which goes far beyond the extra 'u' in 'favour.' I gave Prisoner of War four stars because I really enjoyed it, though I realise it is a bit of a departure from the mainstream and ultimatly is not for everyone.
this game is pretty good [Posted on 2003-11-15] I got this game thinking it would be pretty stupid, but it was actually pretty awesome. This game is great if you like stratagy games or even just a really historical war game, that takes place in actuall pow camps used by the germans in world war 2. I highly recomend this game.
IT'S OKAY. [Posted on 2005-03-10] ONCE YOU GET THE HANG OF EVERYTHING IT'S AN OKAY GAME. NOT LIKE MEDAL OF HONOR OR CLOSE BUT DECENT IN IT'S OWN WAY. BUY THE LESS EXPENSIVE OFFERS AND YOU'LL FEEL BETTER ABOUT IT AFTER YOU START PLAYING.
For a budget priced game.... [Posted on 2005-04-11] You get full priced value. While this has been out for a couple of years now the graphics may appear out-dated to some of the more 'seasoned' shooter players. The gameplay, however, more than makes up for that. This is one of those games that starts a bit slow, but picks up steam after you learn more about the sub-plot themes and what your role is as an assassin. The gameplay surpasses any grumble over 'minor' issues with powerhouse graphics. They are not at all bad anyway. The sounds are top-notch. You can almost smell the humidity. The program had a good length for me. About 14 hours. Not bad. But, let the plot unfold a bit before putting this away to be forgotten. You'd be missing out on a really high quality shooter. With a touch of RPG thrown in for good measure. Worth every penny and then some.
Outdated [Posted on 2007-03-19] Surely it's a bargain priced game but it is kinda outdated and slow paced. If you can handle that, it's a good deal but i lost interest after a few hours.
