Cute, February 17, 2014

by forgepoet

Within the framework of a quickly made and meant to be quickly played game, this works very well and is quite pleasant. The tone is consistent and appropriate to the setting and main character, and the adult elements are played for (fairly gentle and worth a giggle) humor. Events unfold logically and with few hitches; I can't recall a single issue of guess the verb or a point where I was stuck for more than a minute or two.

This is a perfect example of silly that actually is silly, not lazy and stupid. Not what I would call "unforgettable" (two days later the details are escaping me) but worth playing.

Captain Galactic Enjoys His Final ReleaseMay 21, 2013

Barring overwhelming bug-reports of the "my computer caught on fire and started mugging people, while still on fire" variety, "The Dream Trap of Zzar's" new Release 3 is likely to be the final form of the game, featuring (mostly) a small batch of typo fixes and a few adjustments to the writing to tweak the level of juvenile energy this way and that. Mostly that.
