Re: New site launched
Looks nice. Clear, well-arranged, no unnecessary fluff. I already commented on those few games I solved, so that you admins have something to do

Re: Reviews - your input needed!
I think the cruelty scale isn't all that bad. May be "invented" for new games, but as far as I remember the games I played, it's applicable enough to all of them. Personally, I would go for the cruelty and the frustration ratings. I'm sure you will provide a freetext box for any additional ...

Re: Mines of Saturn, early adventure for the Spectrum 16K
As always, I'm just a voice from the off (i.e. not playing the game myself)... Did you already try to just cross it several times? The expression "WHAT LUCK" might indicate that it's simply an annoying random element.Juan wrote: "You made it across the bridge, WHAT LUCK!"

As far as I know your preferences, you will be pretty disappointed by "Labyrinth", I reckon. Only the very start is a short text adventure part, and then you enter the Labyrinth and it becomes more of a point & click sort of thing. It also has a few "arcade" parts, which are pretty hard to manage ...

Okay, shame on me... I played it with occasional help of the solution. So, Terri, Amby - if you haven't given up yet, and want to try without cheating, ask me when you're totally stuck.
