Augmented Fourth

Augmented Fourth is one of those games that everyone hopes for, a longish, well-implemented parser game with great writing and fun puzzles.

You play a court musician cast into a pit. After a couple of linear puzzles, you're brought into a large underground town where you have to complete a sequence of unlikely tasks.

You learn to play a variety of magical musical song spells. These affect the environment around you.

The game is fun, amusing, but also hard. Many logical ideas don't work, and some illogical ideas are needed to complete the game. However, this is normal for oldschool games, and Augmented Fourth is something of a homage to oldschool games.

I recommend it for fans of Infocom games, which is quite a few people. It really brings that same feel.
