Cool but a little lacking

The Good
I purchased this game years ago but many of its good points are still vivid to me.

  1. Its strong plot
    If any game has the potential to be canned and silly its this one. But much to my surprise it was anthing but predictable. Many new ideas and threads were introduced and generally the plot was about as good as you can get with this topic.

  2. Gameplay
    Hands down a joy to play. The interface was easy to use and control, thus allowing most of my attention to be placed in the game. :-) JFK held my attention and often times had me at the edge of my seat.

  3. Graphics\Sound
    For its day JFK has excellent graphics and approperiate sound.



    The Bad
    Well maybe I am a little hard on adventure games, but this one was hard at times. I definately wished I had a hint book for this one. In the end I simply got lost in the presidency (making decisions) and just could not unravel the mystery. Past that JFK had little to dislike other than some intro screens that were cheap and undistingushed.

    The Bottom Line
    If you can find this game (and I bet you cant) then by all means buy it immediately. It is worth what ever you have to pay to get it. (under 40 bucks of course) :-)
