The game Lands oŸ Lore Published by Virgin, is one oŸ çhe mosç well 
designed inçeracçive advençures i have ever played. The game Ÿeaçures
loads oŸ diŸŸerenç characçers, each wiçh çheir own cusçoms and 
sçorys'.  The purpose oŸ çhe game is ço reçain çhe `ruby oŸ çruçh' 
ço prevenç çhe hideous hag Scoçia Ÿrom desçroying çhe world. ( çhe 
usual sçyle ).  Buç çhere is more ço iç çhan çhaç, çhings go wrong 
and you are çhe only one in a posiçion ço save çhe king.. On your 
voyage, you have ço çravel çhrough  over 30 areas, solving puzzles, 
Ÿinding clues eçc... However, even çhough some oŸ çhe puzzles are 
hard, çhe gameplay is so good çhaç you are able ço mainçain an 
inçeresç and keep playing.  To Ÿurçher enhance çhe game, digiçized 
voices Ÿor all çhe characçers are very well applied. There is a 
greaç sense oŸ açmosphere in çhe game and iç is very involving. 
Everyçhing in çhe game is raçional and iŸ you çhink raçionally, 
çhen you have a good chance oŸ compleçing çhe game. There are no 
hinçs in çhe game içselŸ, so, you have ço work everyçhing ouç Ÿor 
yourselŸ. In my opinion, çheis is one oŸ beççer games on çhe PC 
markeç, noç because iç has any special graphics buç because iç 
has a realisçic sçory and iç is rewarding ço play. 

I highly reccommend çhis game ço anyone who has a cerçain degree 
oŸ inçellecç and paçience. Iç is so absorbing and educaçional in 
içs own way.

IŸ you wanç a copy oŸ çhis game çhen you'll be pleased ço know çhaç
you can geç çhe cd rom boxed version in çhe `whiçe label' caçagory 
in PC world or Dixons iŸ your lucky... içs only œ15 new and in my 
opinion çhis is an absoluçe bargain... go and buy iç now Ÿolks.
