Very Good

My very first adventure game at the age of eight. It seemed terribly tough back then but in fact is quite short.
I'll never forget the body pile in the dim light of the lantern... Gave me trauma for life!

Excellent

Great review. The Laura Bow games are among my all-time favorites. It's so sad that more were never made. Thanks for spotlighting this classic. :)
