Unfortunately, most of the graphics in this game are ripped off. Two are taken from King's Quest II. And it looks like a few others are altered desert scenes from someone else's game. The one original scene of a house, doesn't look good at all. On top of that, the technical aspects are no good. There aren't any animations. In fact, the game has a fatal error at the beginning which doesn't even allow it to run. Also, the plot isn't very fleshed out. It's all described in one textbox and not mentioned again. Few to no commands are understood. I am not trying to be mean, but this game needed a whole lot of work. However, it has been abandoned anyway. I can tell Ian C. Smith is a nice guy, but with his next game, I suggest he put more effort into it. Perhaps it would be a good idea to work on the game with someone else. Let's see what else he makes.
