As a follow up to my previous article on Another World (also known as Out of This World in some regions), I'm currently researching the ways that players have experienced and connected with the game over the past 23 years.

I have put together a questionnaire to help encourage people to share their thoughts, memories, feelings and stories. It consists of 11 yes-no questions and 15 open questions, asking about players' first experiences, which platform(s) they played the game on, how they feel the game has aged and which aspects they found most or least enjoyable.
This may seem like a large questionnaire, but it can be completed in aroudn 10 minutes (you're very welcome to take longer!), and represents a fairly unique opprortunity to celebrate and recognise a classic game.
I'd like to receive responses by the 25th of Februray 2016, at which point I will begin collating and attempting to draw interesting threads and insights from the collected responses.
If you know anybody who has played Another World, please pass on this questionnaire. The more respondents I receive, the more representative the article will be.

Thanks for reading, and thank you to the people who've taken time to answer already!
I've had some interesting responses so far, but I'd still like to collect more! Please share this page and/or the questionnaire links above with anybody you know who may have played Another World.
