You forgot Universe also had the nasty habit of crashing - very - often.

Hah yeah and on top of that, pressing escape dumps you to DOS without a warning. Well that's nice, considering I was trying to save the game and didn't know how.

I played this game A LOT during my childhood and had great fun with it. This was before I'd played the many better adventuregames so for me this was pure gold. Today I see it's weaknesses but I still enjoy it for what it is: cartoonish, quirky and a holder of many memories. I think I played it at the right age, it's weaknesses weren't really a problem and what did come through was easier to live with. This was a time when getting a hold of a game meant long bicycle-rides, collecting empty bottles for money, or smugling unused 3.5" out of dad's office and lots of "please, please, please let me have a copy of your game buddy!" Getting games could be quite a job so when you actually got a new one you were excited and mostly ignored it's flaws. Times sure changed with the internet.. for better or worse.

Curse of Enchantia is a game that is a torture to play . I remember knowing exactly what I wanted to do but the game took so long to let me do it, that I thought that my solution was wrong. The interface is just a mess and really badly programmed.

Pathetic Review
I just have to comment on the idiocy of the person who wrote the review. Obviously he/she has NEVER heard of, let alone played a point-and-click adventure before and couldn't even define the genre! This is a classic game in the mould of such other great point-and-click adventures as the Monkey Island series, Day of the Tentacle and Sam and Max (albeit notes well known as these titles)... I could go on. Next time, do some research before you come up with such a useless, underdeveloped excuse for a pathetic, reactive attempt at what cannot be called a review.

minimally on the screenshots it doesn't look like classic lucas arts adventure. and he also mentions that there are some platformer elements in it. although i haven't played the game
anyways, the person who wrote the review is not active anymore so your rant is as much useless as trying to have a normal dialogue with fan boys like you

That's how much I've advanced in the game btw. The puzzles aren't that bad, but the controls manage to absolutely suck any fun the game has. I'm not even sure I understand all the menu icons. I quit. |
