Review
This is an Adventuron game in Spanish, made for Ectocomp.
It has 4 chapters, each detailing part of the story of Sidodorf, a soldier in a war that no longer cares about living as much as writing one final amazing letter. This leads him to desperate and bizarre acts.
The adventuron programming works well here, especially since the error messages give good hints on what to do next. My frequent problem with different dialects of Spanish struck again; I always thought TAKE would be TOMAR, but in this game one must use COGER, which is a strong vulgarity in the Spanish I learned. C'est la vie.
This game was really a very interesting character study, and I think its protagonist may be worth nominating for a Best PC xyzzy award next year. Unfortunately for me and other would-be translators, you can't highlight text to paste in google translate. However, it was overall pretty clear.

Well, if you need some aid with spanish question contact me at infiction.
"Tomar" has some quite different meanings.
Drink a refresh, ale...
Catch a train or bus.
Joke other people : "Tomar el pelo"
Take some time to improve an action: "Tomar su tiempo"
Etc.
"Coger" means have sex in latin american, not in Spain.
Always means take a thing with your hands.
Take a bus, a way.
