Animated Adventure by UNION LOGIC
Reviewed by Lu Richardson
This is an unpretentious adventure game by some people I've never
heard of before... though, with luck, I might in the future. It has
adequate, if not spectacular, graphics and animation, jolly sound
effects and the easiest interface I've ever come across. Click with
the left button to look at things, click with the right button to do
everything else. If you want to save, quit or load, or make any
other adjustments, press any function key. Move the cursor along the
top of the screen to see the inventory. Now, how's about that for
simplicity?
It's quite funny game, too, and it grows on you. Watch the brief
info sequence and find out how a hero is found and trained to become
a secret agent. You have to pass three tests before you are allowed
to undertake the main mission.
I thought at first the puzzles were going to be a pushover till I
found I couldn't do anything at all, anywhere, with the items at
hand. So I had to think really hard and I found that, familiar
though they looked, these problems were rather novel and their
solutions anything but easy. Nevertheless, they were solvable, if
only you put enough effort into them... and despite the red herrings.
So, much to my surprise, I found myself being thoroughly entertained
by this seemingly rather ordinary adventure - and I have a feeling
that you will, too. Of course, it could be that there is such a
scarcity of good adventures at the moment that almost anything will
shine for sheer lack of competition. But is it so? Invest on this
modest game, on just 3 HD disks, and decide for yourselves. I don't
think you'll regret it.
