Review
A potentially decent game for beginners as the story and settings are simple and charming and puzzles are straightforward. Unfortunately, the prose is isn’t as elegant as it could be and there’s a few missteps that break the storytelling. The first comes right at the beginning. To wit:
“...your car is to the south where a straight road with no traffic passes the store in an east-west direction…”
>x car
You can’t see any such thing.
Yes, it was simple enough to go south and then examine my car, but I started out annoyed and gave up on anything being too detailed.
The most glaring issue comes in the ending, when you read a letter from Old Jim, where it begins with “Hi there (your name).” Either this was a bizarre design choice or the author forgot to prompt the player to ever enter their name while playing.
