| reporter, can, infomercial, enter the matrix, supplement, mike, malcolm, viva, good review, donald trull, alice, no one lives forever, patches, | About halfway through, I got so fed up with how hard it russo was to actually enjoy the damned thing that I gave up and followed a walkthrough just to see how it ended. russo Back to the topic of conversations: better than 90% of the game involves talking to everyone about everything, much like in the Broken Sword games, and then 90% of what you hear is just dumb jokes. russo Actually, the jokes were pretty funny and cute at first, but the humor wore thin after the first few scenes. Now, I do realize that classic old-style adventure games rely heavily on conversing, but there was simply too much in this game, especially since there was nothing to watch except the bobbing heads and waving arms of Lewton and whomever he was talking to while listening to what they were saying. Okay, I'm done ranting now, but the bugginess and tiresomeness and the soreness of my escape-key pinkie sorely tried my patience. |

| Gameplay is patches kind of spotty, too. I really liked the hotspot cursor patches that would light up an onscreen description of whatever you were supposed to interact patches with, and I really, really liked the fact that there was no dying. (Well, Lewton sort of dies, but it's part of the story.) The game is largely mouse-controlled, with a couple of function keys to bring up options and inventory and the ever-so-valuable "escape" key to skip scenes or conversation. And there is a whole lot of conversation (more about this a little further down) and very little in the way of puzzles, actual or integrated, and what puzzles there were were pretty obtuse. DWN was just crawling with bugs, too—at first, every time I tried to change locations, I inexplicably would get booted back to my Windows 98 desktop. Then I learned that if I got rid of all TSRs except for Explorer and Systray, there weren't any more crashes, but the game would stutter, sometimes for a couple of minutes straight. |
