Golden Wake gets reviewed by some Swedish Magazine.

Translated by David Ostman, provided by the wonderful Lasca.

Samaritan Paradox gets hate, and love, it's all in good spirit.

One of the few times an AGS game is sported on cracked. So, Samaritan Paradox by our very own Andail under Screen7 is featured. On an article. About unreasonable puzzles. In videogames. It beat Castlevania II Tornado. Yay!

Here's the article!!

Swedish magazine gives out love for AGS.

 If you can read swedish. According to Lasca who gracefully shared these to us, this is a list of top 30 adventure games. And below follows a review of the Samaritan Paradox.

EXHIBIT #8: LOOM (1990)

Front and back cover:

 

What's inside the box: three 3.5" floppy disks, manual, Book of Patterns with glasses, LucasFilm catalog, a cassette and a bunch of leaflets.

Beautiful booklet where you could write the notes for the spells you discovered along the way. Many spells do not appear in the game though.

Red glasses again serve as a copy protection.

And the best thing of all. This, my friends, is the most original intro ever: a 30-minutes long audio drama! Talking about immersion, eh?
