Pros: Fairly elaborate space opera scenario, moderately difficult, good puzzle ideas, sophisticated Infocom-like parser (not quite at the same level, though), deterministic, includes help system. Cons: relies on external artwork for clues (personal pet peeve), requires fastidious searching of scenery, lacks narrative integrity, and too many typos. But overall, it's a worthy adventure for 1983, and fun to play even if slightly irksome with the kind of play style it requires.
