It's fun, like a campy silly B movie. Nothing earth-shattering, but good fun for a few afternoons. And it's often on very deep sale, so the price is quite right.
I didnt't thought that old quest game can be so exciting. It has simple classical gameplay and a bit ordinsry plot, but the script is well-written, cutscenes are beautiful, and I couldn't tear myself away for couple of hours from the beginning. Higly recommended.
Good adventure story with relatively straightforward puzzles and a variety of location types. Good graphics and animations. It is long, has lots of dialogues, and there are even action scenes. You cannot die, just repeat until you succeed. If you get stuck, remember to click on every available active zone and try every possible item combination.
