not easy to beat, but easy to get into
I'm quite dumbfounded to see this one here. Yes, it is a good game, no, I don't think the vast majority of people here ever heard of it before. Theoretically, this is a pretty typical text-adventure. You give words and simple sentences as input, and you mainly solve puzzles to advance the (fairly typical and fantasy themed) plot. In practice, the developers managed to fix most of the problems that are ever present with text adventures. Find it hard to navigate? There is a map, and a compass, showing exactly where you are and which direction you're facing. Don't find the text evocative enough? There are little illustrations showing you the scenery and the action. Can't find the right word? Most actions are actually listed in the menus. Tired of tying in simple commands again and again? There are button shortcuts to the most generic and regularly used ones. Still, there are some dead ends, player deaths and pretty obscure, timed or illogical puzzles, but when it comes to old text adventures, I feel like this is one of the easiest to get into. All in all, very much recommended. Ancient, obscure, interesting and highly playable.
