I used to love adventure games but I just don't have the time for them these days. I need things that are reasonably short or that I can pick up on random weekends. This game restored my faith in adventure gaming. It was fun and had a great storyline. In fact, it was so good that it encouraged me to seek out and play all the other Blackwell games - which are also great BTW. Knowing the end didn't in any way spoil the fun of the earlier games.
