The Trip

Baf's Guide

You come to a small backwater town to meet your friends from high school who are as much losers as yourself. However, consciousness-expanding experiments (with drugs and hallucinogenic plants) trigger off a chain of events that finally make you change your whole life. I found some puzzles somewhat obscure, though the bulk of them can be bypassed - due to a bug. Since we're talking about puzzles and bugs - the game has several optional puzzles that are even more obscure, and is rather bug-ridden. The proper rating for this work probably would be ***, but I'm adding an extra star for the game's unique atmosphere reminiscent of works by Carlos Castaneda, which I'm very fond of.
