Summary

Too short! Got me started(again) on adventure games. The last one I played was Mindstone for ZX Spectrum in 1988.

The Good

The voice acting! Simply incredible! Tim Curry as Gabriel, Leah Remini as Grace, Mark Hamill as Mosely, Michael Dorn as the voodoo master(sorry, forgot his name) The music! The music for the CD-version is simply superb! It sticks in your mind and won't let go - to get midi samples you can go to Quest Studios. The drama! Family cursed with duty to stop evil - and a Romeo and Juliet romance develops! The intrigue! All around you the eyes are watching - and you don't know who to trust!

The Bad

It was too short! Aaargh! I finished it!

The Bottom Line

Go. Buy this. It will show you what TRUE adventure gaming is.
