I really enjoyed this game. I don't know how often I would play it again. You did kind of jut from one place to the other without a reason why. I would recommend for beginners as it was not too difficult. It was the perfect length with the right amount of puzzles. Jon Ingold really does go the extra mile with his games.
I would say this is a modern mix of an RPG and IF. You choose and get abilties same way you would in a RPG. Don't get me wrong- I loved it. It was a great story- What I didn't like is that you are trapped in a web browser.
I am old fashioned and prefer to type on my Z machine lol I found the bells and whistles a bit too distracting at times.
Ive played this game maybe about a dozen times now and it never gets old. This game should be on everyone's top 5 games to play.
This really needs a walk through.
