| Demian's Thoughts: |
While I'm pleased that a solo adventure was included in this magazine, it's a shame they couldn't have managed a better one. Nothing about it is interesting -- the game system is minimal (three stats plus an unlimited inventory), the plot is dumb, the puzzles are few and simplistic, the endings are all unsatisfying, and the whole thing is so short as to be trivial. Sadly, this thing is going to be many people's first encounter with interactive fiction, and it's not likely to put them in the mood for more. Very disappointing. |
