Summary

Bond. James Bond.

The Good

Nice "James Bond" feel to the game. You actually have to THINK like a spy, not like someone playing a spy game. The real-time element really cranks up the pressure in the already politically-tense environment.

The Bad

If you are the type of gamer who spends hours just staring at room descriptions for clues, or who tries command after command for hours, you won't like this game. In itself, it is similar to Infocom's other text adventures. However, the confusion and pressure caused by the real time element can be frustrating if you're not used to it.

The Bottom Line

Very satisfying to complete, but very stressful until you do.
