 Blame the genre?, October 19, 2007by Emily Short This game concerns a male character called in to assist some beautiful girls who have unusual abilities and ought to be much more powerful than himself, but who somehow can't get anything done without masculine direction.

Baf's GuideExceptional ADRIFT game and the first to bring the platform to a wider audience, The PK Girl is a giant of a game in every sense of the word. The storyline may bear more than a passing resemblance to a corny 60's sci-fi show but the writing is top notch and the character interaction - rampant sexism aside - first rate. With eight possible endings available there is a considerable amount of replay value and the game itself is far too large for the player to see everything in a single session. Few ADRIFT games use sound and graphics as extensively as The PK Girl which is either a good thing or a bad thing depending on your preference. Personally I found the graphics cute but unnecessary and the sound irritating, but as both can be turned off this wasn't really an issue. The PK Girl is a benchmark by which future generations of ADRIFT games will be judged and, for the most part, be found wanting. -- David Whyld
