    5 Star Review  The second book besides good memories allows me to catch up on demos that I haven't been able to see. The quality of the book is astonishing. I will definitely buy a third one.

    5 Star Review  Superb book with loads of memories. I preferred the beginning of the book and the earlier years when pixelling and antialiasing really was an art and not done for you by a more modern machine. Again great to see some of my pieces in full colour.

    5 Star Review  Great book about the early years of Psygnosis (up until 1993) with lots of interviews. With lots of screenshots and package-shots, this also works perfectly as a coffee-table book. Highly recommended. Delivery was really quick and in a sturdy package, so the book arrived in perfect condition.

    5 Star Review  Truely a good book to go through, reliving all the memories of the beautiful arts.
    The packaging was awesome for the Kickstarters (special box with extra's).

    Only wish is that the had book started earlier in time. 10 years or so. There was already excellent art being produced, also with art-packs (ascii/ansi). That could have avoided also to a wider spread in art groups and therefor less feeling of 'more of the same'.

    5 Star Review  Really enjoyable history of Psgynosis, with great interviews from developers, graphic and muscial artists. Detailing the various development companies and relations between them along with the games published themselves. All with high quality pictures and a nice touch of QR codes to follow external video links for various interviews.
