I really tried to play this but
The interface man.. the interface. I realize this is an old classic but traipsing back and forth eternally in mazes where the wrong click can send you off on a tangent to who knows where is just not fun. Pros; Very good soundtrack, when I finally gave up I left the game running just so I can listen to the music. Very well done and atmospheric, as well as the intro. Artwork was pretty good for its day, tho grainy and dated nowadays, but I didnt mind that unless it obscured what an item was. The concept was also very innovative and weird enough to suck you into the trip. I may try to go back and finish the game, perhaps a beer or three would help alleviate aggravation so I could. Cons: having enormous mazes with no actionable items in them just seems to me to be filler, to extend the play life of the game. Room after room with useless zoom actions on every light fixture or column base quickly ran out of wow factor, add in that you have to transverse these mazes over and over just added up to a whole lotta of ugh. I was one of the players who made that game finisher error early in the game, thank god I read a wiki on it and found out when I did rather then losing hours trying to make it work. For me the worst part was the overly complicated menu actions, whenever I just wanted to back out of some worthless zoom look I invariably ended up in another room, or you could see doors that were on either side but if you advanced your char ended up in another room entirely. I hope the devs make another game with todays standards for point and click, I am sure their eye for innovative story telling, music immersion and graphical art will make it a winner, but for this classic I have to skip it.
