All in all, I recommend this game to absolutely everyone, not just text-adventure or science fiction fans. It's an absolutely enthralling title and one of the most distinctive ever to hit the shelves. It wholly deserves its overall rating of 5 out of 5.

If you can suspend disbelief enough to accept the situation, then the game is quite good. Unlike other Infocom offerings, it is meant to be experienced, rather than played. The first two parts of the game have almost no puzzles, focusing instead on exploration and discovery as you walk the streets of Rockvil, watching daily life, seeing what activities can be attributed to the effects of the Plan, and watching the changes that take place over time.
