(This is for the original game)
Loom was one of the greatest interactive stories of all time. I am a huge fan of LucasArts/LucasFilms games from this era, such as the Monkey Island games, but this still rate above all of them for me.
Back in the 90's I found some floppy disks in a pile in my house. My father "collected" things from people who could'nt pay him for his services, so we always had random items popping up. The disks all had this logo on them titled "LOOM". I was curious, so I popped them into our second hand computer. First computer we ever got.
When it loaded up I was blown away by the colors and the art style. Such a cool game. I remember the level of difficulty in the puzzles was challenging, yet doable. Took me about two days to beat if I recall correctly. It left an impression, because I still remember it to this day. I recommend it.
It's really one of my favorite games, still, after many years of gaming. There is everything in it that you need: good idears, classic music, jokes and a good and deep story with really touching moments and a very special ending.
No point goin on and on about THIS game:
If you enjoyed the golden age of adventures, especially the LucasArt ones, PLAY it!
Plain and simple, one of the mos innovayive games, at least at the time.

Minus one star for the absence of goodies (audio drama, alternative editions, etc)
I remember seeing an ad for 'Loom' in Compute! magazine back when it first came out. I didn't understand what it was. All I knew was that it was not as appealing as the Sierra games that I was playing and gave the game no thought.
Oh naive I was back then! 'Loom' is an adventure game gem! While it is a short point-and-click adventure game, it is enchanting and wondrous. The game was made more special by the absence of a verb menu like in other games by Lucasfilm Games or LucasArts. Instead, playing as a young Weaver (wizard) named Bobbin Threadbare, you learn threads (musical notes) that you can string together to form drafts (a spell made of 4 musical notes). You use drafts to interact with people and objects in your surroundings.
The puzzles in 'Loom' are quite easy to solve if you know what drafts to learn and play (cast) on your distaff. You will have musical notes to guide your learning and casting in Practice and Standard levels of difficulty. In the Expert level, you'd have to learn and cast by ear. I played 'Loom' at the Expert level and relished the extra challenge, especially given my love for music. Regardless of your familarity with music, finding the correct draft to cast does require some imagination and lateral thinking at times.
It's a shame that 'Loom' is such a short game, but it is a rewarding and memorable one. Any fan of classic adventure games should play 'Loom' if he/she has not done so already!
