>INVENTORY - Paul O'Brian writes about interactive fiction

On the plus side, this is a superhero game. I like superheroes. On the minus side, well, everything else.

The early Quest engine had a number of issues, mainly that you had to define each action separately, and it didn't do synonyms well. So much of this game is 'guess the verb'. I downloaded an old version of quest to play it, as gargoyle was having some problems.

You play a woman who becomes a superhero after a mysterious hilt comes into her life. The game goes from scene to scene. I couldn't finish one scene due to a bug (I think I had the wrong interpreter yet again), but opening the quest file in Notepad++ revealed the ending, as the game is completely linear.
