Depends on the platform it was onI'm a bit biased here, as I know people from the software house that developed it, and only ever played the MSX version which wasn't too bad.
The speccy screenshots do look a bit shit and the MSX game wasn't about to win any big art awards, but it played ok (I found it difficult, at the time) and the sound synthesis did work, including on the speccy.
That was a bit of a rarity. It was early days and the only popular games that used speech were Ghostbusters and Mission Impossible - and only on the C64. Most software houses wimped out of trying to do speech.
Must dig it out and see how bad it really was..
Never did play Alien8, but did have a go at Knight Lore; that was tricky and annoying in its own way too..
