The Elysium Enigma

I´m fairly new to Interactive Fiction. Sure, I´ve tried Zork and a few other Infocom titles in the past. I grew up with the C64 and Amiga, so I remember trying those games back then. I´m Norwegian, so although I could tell these games to be exciting, my english wasn´t good enough yet to have any fun with them.

I think I was pretty lucky to try The Elysium Enigma as my first modern IF game. I love the Firefly series, which I think might have been an inspiration for this game.

The game has a dystopian mood almost among the lines of The Road (movie/book), and a grand mystery to unravel.

It´s a very compact world for a text adventure. And I like that. I never felt the need to note down a map, and the puzzles were never too taxing.

I´m reccomending this game to my friends. Even those that have never tried IF´s before.
