 Buggy and not much to do, December 26, 2013by Simon Deimel (Germany) The game has a crazy quilt environment, a common device in surreal settings. Different rooms are patched to each other. It may contribute to a surreal atmosphere, but here it makes navigating the rooms and scenes more difficult. Talking about scenes: they are integrated into static room descriptions, so will happen every single time when the room is entered. That is something which I can live with, maybe even done on purpose. But then the room descriptions (and described scenes) reveal objects again and again when the room is entered, even if the object has been taken or moved into another room, but the thing is not actually there anymore. That is annoying. Which brings us to the next point: The room descriptions contain things and most of them are not implemented as objects, so dealing with them is met with a reply that this object is not existent. Which is frustrating and makes the player wonder if there is a reason to try any interaction. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment
Baf's GuideA peculiar little psychodrama in which you wander dreamlike through the protagonist's thoughts and memories. Written, oddly enough, in the third person. Not very interactive, with only three objects and one puzzle. Some events are embedded in room descriptions, the sure sign of someone not quite grasping how the development system works. This game was floating around - first on BBS's, then on the net - for ten years before the author found out and issued a disclaimer. Apparently, it was written as demo code for AGT, and was never intended for public release. -- Carl Muckenhoupt
