This is an intriguing piece that passed me by when it was released, but which somehow showed up in my Steam library recently (I say somehow cos I don't remember buying it ๐Ÿ™‚).

Four chapters are available, once you unlock the earlier ones. I have just completed the first.

This one was a text adventure, the visuals being a little more elaborate than what you might expect. It drips the 80's, and reminded me of a number of things. Including Anatomy, which has nothing to do with the 80's but which also regurgitates a same but different play-through.

I have no idea what is to come in the next chapters but I enjoyed this one. I largely missed the whole text adventure scene first time around so this offered something different just by being different. It can be a tad cantankerous in terms of the instructions it will take, but experimentation and a bit of patience should find the way forward.

I look forward to the next three chapters and will tell you more when I finish.


Gardens put to bed. Time for more reading and gaming.

Thanks, flotsam! One of my very first adventure games was Zork, so I do okay with text adventures now. Thank you for that first look! It might be worth mentioning that the game is on sale for 99 cents on both GOG and Steam right now. happydance12

And thank you too, Drac! newyear

Thanks, flotsam. Your 'first look' inspired me to give Stories Untold a try. Meanwhile I've played through the four chapters. The type of challenges in each chapter are very different. It's definitely worth playing through the whole game to get the meaning of each chapter.
