Ken's Labyrinth

aka: LAB3D/SDL, Walken
Moby ID: 388

DOS version

This is a GAME?? I thought it was a homework project from BASIC 101!!

The Good
The simple fact that Ken Silverman at least TRIED. He tried and he tried, but try as he may, he didn't try hard enough. At least the game had a couple of cool features, like the vending machines and the ability to raise and lower your height.

The Bad
EVERYTHING! The game's like a big complete joke, except it isn't too funny and is actually quite sad.

The gameplay stinks! Nothing actually ATTACKS you, instead just opting to touch you and kill you that way. The weapons are no different from one another, and the game's FAR TOO EASY! The graphics stink; they look like a little 5 year old drew them!! And the sound and music? Here's what I think of it: turn off the speakers. FAST.

The Bottom Line
If it weren't for the "This is Shareware" messages and the order form, I would've almost thought Ken Silverman just took an old homework assignment, zipped it up, and tossed it out onto some BBS, hoping some poor sod would mistake it for a real shareware game.

Alas, this IS a real shareware game. The horror...the HORROR...
