Another nice collection of the Infocom classics.
The Good
As with LTOI 1, it's nice to have the games all packaged together. Same great games we know and love from Infocom.
The Bad
Didn't come with the maps/hints that LTOI came with. Also, in order to play the games you still have to enter the command at a DOS prompt (menu program found in LTOI is absent here as well).
The Bottom Line
Games themselves are great. This is a definite must-have.

Trivia
Extras
The game came with a manual reprinting all the game's manuals, and a few pack-in items from Trinty and Sherlock: The Riddle of the Crown Jewels. The hint book was left out of this package, instead there was a number to call to get hints for "only 95 cent per minute".
Includes games
Inexplicably, the only text-only adventure the second volume left out was Leather Goddesses of Phobos, which was offered for sale in the package for $9.95.
Technology
These games required ANSI.SYS to be included in config.sys.
