Now you didn't really expect me
to finish an Infocom Expert level adventure in the few days before
copy deadline did you? Suffice it to say that Spellbreaker is the
third and final part of the ENCHANTER trilogy and has all the detail
and intrigue you have come to expect of Infocom.
Magic is the very core of existence
for an Enchanter but now magic itself is failing. Why? That is for
you to discover and rectify - if you can. You start at a meeting
of the Circle of Enchanters where complaints are being aired about
failures of all kinds of things. You listen intently to the argument
and debate when suddenly, before your eyes, each of the Enchanters
turns into a newt, salamander or frog! You turn just in time to
see a shadowy figure rush out of the door, you follow and the adventure
begins.
Infocom on the ST plays very well
with a full 128k of story in memory, fast response and an 80 column
display. Of course, being text only the basic presentation is no
different but you don't need it to be. In a good book you don't
look at the typestyle or the layout, you just read the story, if
it is interesting enough, and Infocom know how to come up with an
interesting story.
If you have played Infocom before
you will almost certainly want this one. If you are just beginning,
beware, there is strong magic and mind-boggling puzzlement at Expert
level.
