Double review
Beyond Zork is a game with a great amount of play and replay value. Many of the puzzles have multiple solutions, and will keep players coming back to find more even after they have played the game to a conclusion.
...
On the whole, Beyond Zork is well worth the playing; truly difficult puzzles are few, the game atmosphere is effective, and the ending--even if it points to a sequel that never happened--is thoroughly rewarding. Even if RPGs aren't your style, there is plenty more in Beyond Zork than hack-and-slash; it deserves consideration among Infocom's best.

SynTax
Although the extra features mean that the text is not as verbose as usual, it still scores over a lot of other adventures with its descriptions. There are some really sneaky puzzles in the game and the plot is very convoluted. The author, Brian Moriarty, also wrote Wishbringer and Trinity and in Beyond Zork, he has excelled himself. There are even guest appearances from some characters and objects from his other adventures.
