Truly bad puzzles
I used a walkthrough to do almost the entire thing because the puzzles clearly only meant to infuriate the player.

Better than most, not as good as some
BaSS was a big deal back the Amiga days -- it was a huge graphic adventure influenced by Dave Gibbons, the 2000AD/Watchmen artist. Fair to say, it's a good game and the graphics stand up well in the genre. However, the design shows its age. The humor juxtaposed over the "1984" style world just doesn't mesh. A lot of nostaligists also forget the frustrations of the graphic adventure, such as "pixel hunting" puzzles, that show up in BaSS. Nothing as bad as a cat-hair mustache, fortunately, but there are some head-shakers here. In the end, there's really nothing here to enthrall modern gamers, but the old-timers who still think SCUMM games are the epitome of gaming goodness should have fun.

Not a Fan of Puzzle Games
This is a well put together game and I'm sure it was skillfully done for the time it came out, but I'm just not a fan of puzzle games. I almost always have to resort to walkthroughs when I've become too fed up looking for some little object that looks like part of the background. Other than that, the dialogue was a lot of fun and many of the backgrounds were very well done.
