When I first played it a couple or so yrs ago, I was really frustrated trying to find all the super cool weapons or a missed mini game that was mentioned or locating various other minor but necessary Well-Hidden things, (like the sticks to put in the fireplace to blow you out the roof, etc),BUT.... The game was so involving, intriguing, and innovative that it stuck in my mind and I knew that some day I would replay it. That day arrived last month.

It is indisputably one of the best if not The best game ever concieved. It is hard, yes! But it is doable even if you can't find everything! Who wants a game that you spend untold hours to play only to find you can't finish it or must start all over? I don't!! This dmod makes you puzzle (isn't that what a game is about). Even more that that tho, is the fun you have playing it...the delight and excitement of finding that hard sought person item, place, or awesomely bad-ass new weapon...the thrill of being able to complete a quest and finish off all the bad guys! And last but definitely not least, the journey into strange and exciting new country with unique and mysterious characters. YES! And it was all free. The only place where I've had more fun and excitement was at the schlitterbahn (As a texas boy, Redink will get this reference).

Now the funny thing about this game is this:

When I first played it, I <u>was not</u> that impressed. Redink hid things so well or made finding some of the mini games rather too difficult that I lost my patience with it. I simply quit looking for stuff and fininished the game the easy way. What a waste! I'm so relieved that I never wrote a review at that time. I didn't appreciate it the way the way Redink meant it to be. I couldn't possibly have done it justice.

Keep on keeping on, Redink.
