Thank you Chris!

Thank you so much for this VoiceOver accessible game! So many game app designers leave people who are blind in the dust of graphical interphases. Your games immerse the reader in an engaging mystery, where attention to detail and creative problem solving help unravel the plot. I really appreciate that no choices result in the character's demise, and no opportunities are missed by a particular choice. I couldn't put it down for long, until I completed all three.

Compelling!

A walk down memory lane.... The game’s designer and programmer, Chris Radford, has revitalized and re-energized the classic text-based adventure games of yesteryear with a modern day visually appealing and easy-to-use graphical user interface that eliminates all the typing that this genre typically entailed before the advent of awesome widgets. Dynamically optimized for either tablets or smartphones, the game-play is addictive, the story line is compelling, and the underlying themes are poignant. Overall, an experience worth every minute and every dime. Well done and thank you, Chris, for sharing your imagination, your enthusiasm and your message!

The world’s most underrated game

This app is so addictive, I played it for, I think 5 minutes the 1 hour later I went back on and I haven’t played anything since

Loved the game!

Wonderful story with a cool old school vibe to it. The ending was pleasantly surprising, and I recommend you try it.

AWESOME GAME!

Great job, Chris! I've been meaning to play this for awhile, and had no idea it was so addictive until trying it last week on vacation. I got so involved, I did nothing but play! Immediately got Part 2, and now want the next part!

Keep up the great work!
