Top critical reviews

The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.

“Without using a walkthrough, the game becomes hilariously long. The puzzles are completely unintuitive, and items blend so seamlessly into the background that they’re nearly impossible to spot; even with random clicking, you’ll still miss…”

“It's too dated. I really tried, but I lost interest after a while. Won't finish it. You can watch a play-through on YouTube. Only for the die-hard fans of this genre or if you want to replay it after 30+ years out of nostalgia.”
