| Deleted User | I gave it a 9. I liked it very much. It took me a while to get into the Zork mood (this was my first Zork game), but when I got there it was very rewarding. Definitely worth a replay.

Status : Offline | '9'. This was one of the first games I played. It was a bit of a departure from the lonely first person games that I had experienced. I had trouble getting used to the spell puzzles, but once I got the hang of it, it was fun. This is also one of the funniest games I've ever played.

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.

Status : Offline | Have a feeling this game will eventually be a 10 for me, loved it while I was able to play then had a computer crash, so will have to start all over again, I was probably more than half way thru too. >

Status : Online | A game which starts off very well yet near the end loses most of the Zork consistency (there is such a thing) and the graphical/technical quality of the game is somewhat low near the later bits.
Still, Mir Yannick... Floss regulary! A 9!

Status : Offline | Hilarious game! Never got boring, great atmosphere, nice voice actors, good puzzles. On the downside, some parts of the game felt a bit unfocused (like I had absolutely no idea what to do next, or why to do a certain action), some of the graphics were uneven, some of the deaths annoyed me (it felt more like a game I wanted to explore without the risk of dying, not one where I had to save all the time) and all in all it seemed a bit short (but maybe that's because I wanted it to go on and on ).
Great game for sure! I give it an 8.

Status : Offline | I haven't wandered down into this section in a long time, so I've decided add my 2 cents about a game or two.
For its zany humor and delightfully offbeat puzzles, I gave ZGI a 10. I didn't mind dying at all in this one because making mistakes was so much fun. Like Trudysgarden, I tried all the settings on the Totemizer just because I had to see what would happen, and I spent a long time listening to the background monologue from the loud speakers because it was such a hoot.
