3 unusual facts about Burn:Cycle


Burn:Cycle

Burn:Cycle features a largely techno soundtrack, composed and performed by the partnership of Simon Boswell and Chris Whitten.

The coupling of this with CD-i's technological limits have led some commentators to lament the fact that this was not a game made two years later, when arguably 3D had its true birth (given the rise of PlayStation and Saturn in that year).

The website nonetheless considered Burn:Cycle "well-balanced" and its environments "carefully planned", giving the game an A- along with Entertainment Weekly.
