A puzzle game for MS-DOS with CGA graphics. Source codes included.
I really enjoyed this game. It’s deep and challenging enough to take like 1-2 hours of gameplay, but simple enough to not be annoying/repetitive. Easy menu option to restart a room if you get stuck, simple interaction (basically just arrow keys) and the game mechanics are slowly introduced.
It keeps the player engaged, and you have to think to solve the puzzles, but not too hard as to want to give up or put the game down. Explore the rooms, gain new powers, backtrack and collect even more gemstones until finally you can get your VGA back and resolve the CGA curse.
The game just froze on my pc xt with cga when i hit enter.
