Sleeper hit
Torin's Passage is an odd entry on Al Lowe's resume. Unlike his Leisure Suit Larry titles, it's a game the whole family can enjoy. There are cute character designs and childish jokes for kids, along with the more mature humor only adults can appreciate. The game's puzzles can be challenging, but never too frustrating. The only really tough parts are the sliding type puzzles that end some levels. Like King's Quest VII, the game uses the infamous "smart" context sensitive cursor and the inventory screen that allows items to be viewed in 3-D. Torin's Passage also adds a hint system which can be accessed at timed intervals. Still, the game never descends to Telltale depths of triviality. Torin's Passage has a decent story, good sense of humor and quality presentation. It's too bad it came along when the adventure game genre was starting to die out. I'm sure a lot of people got the game when it came with certain new computers, and now more gamers can have fun with it today. It's definitely worth a buy for fans of the genre and those looking for a computer game to play with their kids.
