Breaks my heart...
Oh dear. I am a massive Tex Murphy fan and just thought I'd give this a whirl out of nostalgia for Access Software. It has some charm and fun, but my God, it's hard work. I can forgive a lot, given that it was in the formative years of PC gaming, when no-one really knew what they were doing in terms of gameplay. Obviously, to their credit, they were trailblazing and learned very quickly from the mistakes made in this game. What broke it for me is the same problem that Martian Memorandum has (although I played through the latter the first time without issue). That is, if you fail to collect something (cigarettes in the case of Amazon), there is NO WAY to progress when you need to use it. The only recourse is to return to a saved game, which would be fine if you only had to go back and replay a fairly short sequence. In this case, you have to go back to Chapter 4 (assuming you have a saved game) from Chapter 8. adventuregamers.com have a very well balanced review of the game, so check that out as well.
