"I really like Broken Sword II and that it's one of the best games on the market." Review by Eric Gos and Philip Jong

[4.5/5] by Yoav Ben-Raphael

PlayStation 2 version rated 2/10. "I don't understand the Myst phenomenon at all. Be it the original game, Riven, or the latest in the series known as Exile, it's a franchise that never should have made it past the early 90's."

"Myst was a leading game of its time. This game, while not groundbreaking, is a worthy successor with similar puzzles."

Puzzles to help you find the Easter Eggs in Riven. Hint: click the Spider on the home page and go from there.

"It is bigger than Myst, in many ways it is better than Myst, but it isn't really innovative which Myst was in its time."

Rated 3.75/5 by Joonas Linkola. "The atmosphere is surrealistic to the extreme, and the puzzles are devilishly clever."

Eamon is a text adventure system with strong RPG elements, originally created for the Apple II. More than 200 games have been created for it.

Focal point for news about Inform.

Review from Crash magazine.

"After all those hours spent playing other people's adventures, the time has come to create some of your own. Thomas Green takes a look at the do-it-yourself package from Gilsoft."

Format for sound and graphics in Z-Machine games. Includes sample C code to get started with.

Rated 4/5 by Matthew Murray. "The latest of the next generation Zork games, while a very good one, is not a very good Zork."

Rated +4 on a -5 to +5 scale. "Nemesis is a good, faithful continuation of the Zork tradition. It upgrades the Great Underground Empire to contemporary standards and beyond."
