This was a really fun little dive into a historical place and time that I personally find fascinating: the Bronze Age near-East. Suppiluiliuma is one of my favorite Bronze Age kings (though I'm a little biased--his name and the bizarre appearance of his statues just make him...awesome). I also liked that the game judges you based on how well you appeal to the gods, using the way that ancient societies viewed their relationship to the divine. Overall, it was very well done and true to life. I only give it a 4 rather than a 5 because I wish it went on longer!

It's a fun concept and I enjoyed the game up to a point. I agree with the other reviewer who noticed that the game is pretty sparse on descriptions, and I'd go further to say the rooms are pretty empty altogether. I mean, the bedroom has nothing but a bed and the exits. The dining room has only a table and chandelier.

Where I got really frustrated though was after (Spoiler - click to show)finding all the bodies and getting to the point where it's clear I need to (Spoiler - click to show)interrogate the ghost. I've literally gone through the tutorial and I still haven't been able to figure out (Spoiler - click to show)how to obtain instructions on how to perform a seance. I had the right idea before even seeking out a hint, but no matter what commands I use, nothing is working to get me the information I need. I'm trying to find the supposed (Spoiler - click to show)'hidden collection', but I'm unable to take or move any of the existing books, and the only objects in the room are "books", "rug" and (Spoiler - click to show)the hidden ladder. I know I sometimes have to experiment a lot to figure out the specific commands needed for this sort of thing, but with so few objects to play with, it's frustrating to come to a dead end...especially when the tutorial glosses over this part completely, as if it should be self-evident what I should do.
