What a wonderful blast back to the past of classic DOS parser adventure games! Brings memories of Sierra On-lines games or Zork, Kings Quest, and The Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy back in '84.. The retro styling, sound design, and play style are won

I highly recommend this EGA, horror adventure gem! The chunky graphics are right up my alley and I was quite impressed with this bleak, strange world. On this journey, you will encounter several grotesque, yet hauntingly beautiful, creatures while search

This game gives the full feeling experience of this genre. Update: I finished the game. Hurray! Tips: You'll probably get stuck at some point . Make sure you look at everything you see in each pixelated scene.

Feels just like good old Sierra adventure games, minus their characteristic unforgiveness. At first glance it may look like a very short and straightforward game, but there is quite a bit more to explore if you keep scratching below the surface.

Cool Sierra like parser game. Quite short but has many secrets that extend the playtime.

I personally find this game very fascinating, it's an adventure game, but it seems specifically inspired by the first wave of graphic adventures - after the genre made a leap from the text to the graphics around 1984, but also before it made a full transi

This is a solid effort at recreating the feel of the old Sierra-era adventures! Including the insufferable difficulty I still haven't worked past! To be fair, I'm at a solid 85 of 130 at the moment but horrendously stuck at the logic I'm supposed to follo

I like what game there is, the world is interesting and it's characters are very imaginative, but for me there just isn't enough of it. For the price being charged I would expect a complete beginning, middle and end with some questions being answered. It

A month or two ago, I saw someone playing King's Quest 1 and 2 on Youtube. I have played this type of game that's text-only, but never one in the original style like King's Quest this game recreates so well. Upon playing it, it has sated my thirst for tha

Style: Interactive Fiction Theme: Gruesome verbiage/grimdark Buttoning: keypad and typing commands So, in an effort of transparency, I bought this because I know a creator of this game. (Friend code is not to ask for free art.) I bought this game an

I had fun after I read the manual. READ THE MANUAL. There are two endings that I know of, and no I do not know how to reach the full 130 points. Game is about 2 hours long if you don't get stuck. Once you know what you're doing each additional playthrough

Die interessantesten Aspekte der Story und des World Buildings dieses Spiels sind leider hinter ziemlich obskuren optionalen Rätseln versteckt, so dass man sie bei einem normalen Playthrough niemals zu Gesicht bekommen wird. Und es muss einem bewusst sei

A super lovely game! It has everything I love about old sierra games while reworking the aspects I dont like (namely softlocks and death states) into really cool methods of progression. The world is also really unique and interesting.

Playing this game was like stepping back into my childhood. When I played games like Space Quest and Loom. Games that you needed to think about what you can and can't do. There are a lot of prompts when you first start that are "I don't understand" becaus

A delightfully fun and retro game. Reminds me of my misspent youth playing Zork and Kings Quest series at Uni when I really should have been studying ! Everything about this game punches me right in the nostalgia gland. The sound design (such as it was o
