But even the puzzles are not without some irritating mistakes. The help system is all spoken, no text, and you often cannot hear the spoken instructions over the music. And the slowness, the clunkiness, and the feeble attempt at three dimensions are such a persistent nuisance that it makes one truly wonder what the designers were thinking. They would have been much better off simply packaging these fourteen games together with a menuing interface and the music attached, and skipped the whole pseudo-mystical science fiction aspect entirely. But then, I suppose, it wouldn't be 'multimedia' enough.
Multimedia is, indeed, a wonderful technology and used properly, it can make magic.
But when used simply to try to spice up an otherwise pedestrian game, it only serves to irritate. I do not recommend this game for anyone but die-hard puzzle addicts, and even they will have solved puzzles similar to many of these before. Inc. All rights reserved worldwide.
