Very fun with one or two clueless puzzles, June 1, 2018

You have nine turns to win the game. It amounts to the player using the nine turns to find a spell, restarting and then using that spell (within nine tuns) to find another spell, and so on and so on until the game is won. It is an inventive and humorous game, but by the thirtieth playthrough, I had stopped looking at the screen and was only looking at my map and my notes. Two of the spells in the game are very hard to find as they require a "try everything in every room" approach. The fact that you only have nine turns makes this aspect annoying. Otherwise, it really is a fun game; just grab a walkthrough if you are easily frustrated.
