    What Makes The Prisoner So Tough?

    A game without rules. A prison without bars. The Prisoner is perhaps the toughest adventure game ever written for the Apple computer.

    As you peel back layer after layer of riddle, deception, and doublespeak, you suddenly realize that your computer is playing games with YOU. Escape takes more than just a boat, a bribe, or a magic amulet. It takes your brain. Of the thousands who have taken on The Prisoner, only a select few have found the key... will you?

    The line between adventure and obsession wears thing when the computer you supposedly control starts playing games with you. THE PRISONER's challenge is compelling. In a surreal environment where the simplest clue becomes deception and a riddle may suddenly turn a deadly edge, will you keep your wits? In a bizarre world where your captor smiles sweetly at you, will you remain an individual? In a prsion where you may never even find the bars, can you escape?
