The Final Word game review

Zork Grand Inquisitior -- Activision

R.I.P.
Grrr... yeah I used a walkthrough to crutch me through a couple of puzzles because I just don't have the time I used to have... I think this title finally achieved a good visualization of what I always thought the world of Zork looked like (except for that White House business! What is up with that pit inside the front door?!? I wanted to see the living room and the trophy case). The puzzles were really good, the story was top notch and there was plenty of humor (the "A-Team" reference about had me falling out of my chair laughing). If you're a Zork fan, and you have a reasonably modern PC (Win95/98 w/P90, 16megs of RAM, & a video card that supports DirectX) then I highly recommend this game.
