4.0 out of 5 stars Great Improvement Over First Version, November 16, 2002

By	A. Suriano "jagwires7" (Bernardsville, NJ United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

You get 36 Survivors from the first 4 seasons. Only the top 9 are in the game, so if they made the jury they're in the game. This means no Lindsay, CB, Varner or Sarah. Too bad. You create a tribe of 8 members and pick one survivor to play as. You play through 1) A survival period, where you learn how the other members attitudes are towards you and get a small description of what happened that day in camp. You have no control over what happens that day in camp. It just says something like "Sean caught some fish and people are eating well at camp". This would boost others attitude toward Sean. Good idea but it's random. 2) A reward challenge, which they've included 24 minigames that you play to win a reward or immunity. These games can be a simple word search game, memorization game, questions about previous survivors, a video poker simulation, etc. These minigames are decent, but as you play more, they repeat the same minigames. That doesn't mean you'll always win, so it's not that bad that they repeat. 3) An immunity challenge, same as reward only for immunity. 4) Another survival period where you try to form alliances with others and view attitudes of other members towards each other. Just click on the person you want to target and then click on who you want to join in to vote off this person. You can be asked to join someone else in an alliance, but can only join if you haven't already started one of your own. I've yet to have someone agree to be in an alliance and vote differently. A little deception, people! That would have been nice. 5) Tribal Council. The best part of the game. Jeff Probst makes an appearance and says all his lines just like on TV. "It's time to vote, Tom you're up first". "I'll go tally the votes", etc. They show various people going to write their vote down, but you don't see what they write. Jeff pulls out each paper one by one, turns it around to reveal the vote. I really liked this part of the game until I discovered a pattern to the way votes are revealed. It takes a little suspense away once your on to it, but it's still fun to watch tribal council unfold. When someone is voted out Jeff puts out their fire and says "The tribe has spoken". Tribal Council is well done.

Finally, this PC game is a good Survivor simulation. The game is not perfect and needs improvement in some areas, but if you're a big fan and never miss an episode of the show (like me), you may want to spend the [X] and pick this game up.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Big Step Forward, December 17, 2002

By	James Hiller (Beaverton, OR) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

I was one of the reviewers who slammed the first release of the Survivor computer game. Unbelievably boring challenges, tedious camp time that just didn't go anywhere, and apparent lack of alliances, it was a major disaster that didn't warrant more than two playings. I hesitated to purchase Survivor Ultimate, thinking that it would be just a re-release of the bad with new Survivors added.

Fortunately, this version is NOT a rehash of the first horrible game, but a big step forward in the right direction. You bascially jump from challenge to challenge, many of them truly fun and enjoyable. A couple of them I just didn't even understand, but did better in them upon repeat plays. My favorites are a tower game, a slot machine game, and a game based on minesweeper.

This game totally eliminates the ineffective camp time with an opportunity to form real alliances. These aliiances only last one episode, but at least you can form them which have impilcations at Tribal Council. Both times I've played, my character's popularity plunged, and I was at fault about what to do. However, my alliances saved me at Tribal Council, and I made it to the final Tribal council, winning one and losing one. Sure the people look fakey, but you have to give some leeway for a 20 dollar computer program!

Overall, I imagine I'm going to play this game repeatedly, but not all the time. It certainly is leagues better than the first release. If you are a Survivor fan, or shopping for one, this may be just the gift for you. See you at Tribal Council!

P.S. The realty game that's really held up, even after two YEARS of playing, is "The Weakest Link". I still whole heartedly recommend that program. I want a new release!

3.0 out of 5 stars I Hope Infogrames Listened to the Public, April 20, 2002

By A Customer

Infogrames made a major mistake last year when they released Survivor: The Interactive Game or Survivor: The Interactive Piece of [Junk]. This game was clearly rushed. It is about 20% complete. Plus, the Magic Lantern crew was obviously not up to the challenge of making this game. To start the tactic they used to hype it up was false advertisement! The "Fire and Rain" challenge isn't there and there is no night mode as shown in screenshots. The game's A.I is horrible. For Example, Elisabeth says "Bob is a horrible person" You say "Definitely. I think we should vote out Bob" Elisabeth says How can you think that! I hate you!" If you fom an "alliance" it doesn't matter. Your "allies" will just vote off the weakest person. The challenges are hte same thing over and over. It's just dumb. You have to go through hell to make it work too! The Marquesas version should have:

An imroved TC where Jeff asks questions, you give a reason for your vote and final words.

A more customizable tribe selection.

Create a character model for a custom Survivor.

If you make the Jury, vote at the finals.

Better A.I

Random merges, tribal swaps and injuries.

Weather effects!

More control in the Survival Period. You should be able to complete the task yourself.

Debug it!

More complex challenges.

A bigger camp map.

Better graphics
