Despite Flameout's rather old-fashioned feel, slow gameplay and parser limitations, I found myself hooked by its strange situations and rapidly improving storyline. This is very likely one of those games that you will return to again and again until it's finished (1.5 weeks and I'm not quite there yet!) Laurence Creighton has done a good job of writing this adventure, with some difficult problems to solve and at least one truly maddening situation to deal with - someone doesn't appear at the obvious place until you've discovered something near the end of the game; but I must have wasted hundreds of turns in trotting hopefully back through the game on numerous occasions before discovering what triggered the character's appearance.
