About the Story

The small African Zuni Doll seemed a nice addition to your collection of oddities. Myths say it captures the spirit of an African Tribesman who died while committing a cowardly act. To regain honour, he must kill 25 humans. However, all is safe as long as the doll bears its golden Talisman. Later that night, you awake just as your cat drops something tiny, something golden in your lap...
[--blurb from The Z-Files Catalogue]

Editorial Reviews

Baf's Guide

An African doll containing an evil spirit bent on murder comes to life in your apartment. A small game, not too difficult, but with an extremely high "undo" rate, due to the short time limits in which you must find new ways to delay the beastly little thing. Some of the death scenes are quite grisly. Contains a couple of misspellings and and one major bug. (Workaround for the bug: Don't use "put" when you can use "load".)
