The Big Red Adventure is an adventure video game developed by Dynabyte and published by Core Design for MS-DOS in 1995. It was released for the Amiga computers in 1997 by Power Computing on CD-ROM.[1]

The Big Red Adventure is a sequel to Dynabyte's Nippon Safes Inc., a game that was "a moderate hit in Europe" according to Hardcore Gaming 101. It was developed in Italy.[2]

Plot

The Big Red Adventure follows the protagonists of Nippon Safes Inc. — Doug, Donna and Dino — as they find themselves in post-Soviet Russia. The villainous Doctor Virago hopes to revive Vladimir Lenin to help him revert Russia from capitalism to communism.[2]

Development

While The Big Red AdventureTemplate:'s predecessor, Nippon Safes Inc., used pixel art graphics, the artist left Dynabyte before the sequel's creation. Instead, the team digitized drawings done on paper to create the game's sprites.[2] The game uses SVGA graphics.[3]

Developed in Italy, The Big Red Adventure was published by the British company Core Design.[2]

Reception

Script error: No such module "Video game reviews".

Writing for Amiga Format, Andy Smith called The Big Red Adventure as a jolly good game, accessible to people who don't normally play adventure games and yet convoluted enough for people who do.[1] Coming Soon magazine praised the graphics and humour.[4] Generation 4 gave it 35%[5] while PC Joker gave it 36%.[6]

Hardcore Gaming 101 gave a negative review in 2016, citing the game's "obscure puzzles, lame humor and heavy-handed satire".[2]
