Summary
Theory has it Anachronox was once home to millions of quarantined aliens who died of some horrible plague (Anachronox literally means "poison from a previous time"), leaving this city to fall to ruins, to be taken over by the refuse of the galaxy as the center of their nefarious dealings. Here our story begins. [Eidos Interactive]

Critic Reviews18
All in all, Anachronox is a long, rich, elegant, worthwhile, and above all satisfying gaming experience. The characters, story, and quests are really loads of fun. The goals are always clear, and if you get sidetracked you have no one to blame but yourself, and ultimately no harm is done.

The game is reminiscent of a well-written novel that is funny, suspenseful, and, yes, epic in scope.

Anachronox is full of vibrant color and rich detail, and could easily pass for an "Unreal Tournament"-based game.
