Classic. Although the Graphics are totally outdated, this is not what this is about. It is a nearly 25-30 Year old Version in which only the classic Copy protection (with Words in the printed Manual search) has not been adopted! I'm suspicious of Steam about something, but for this Game I signed up and I'm happy to play like I was back then!

At the moment the most ancient game in my Bible is a steam which I have passed.
A Game in the genre of adventure where we can control our character and enter text commands. Frankly speaking, I do not like to get stuck in the quests and seek out the solution of riddles for a long time. But with the help of the nut you have to sweat. In the game unfriendly interface, the wrong actions can lead to death and shut down the whole game.
I liked it.

The biggest chestnut I've played in my life, more than 30 minutes lost in this psychedelic adventure with provocative fluorescent lights of epilepsy where the only thing I was doing was wandering around a city where I fall into the water and lose the game, I've really The cry of ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ Laughter that gives this game what really bad it becomes, neither Nostalgico nor anything, if you give to see the game and you want to buy it, do not think, the cerebral embolea is so high that you will lose the sense of play.

Product received for free this Is an old-fashioned adventure in which you drive an American named Jug, and you must look for your lost brother, James, and get rich looking for gold. It Is based on the time of the gold rush, and begins in Brooklyn, aiming to reach California.
The game mode is quite curious, because you can "write actions", ie you can put yourself in front of a book, write "read" and perform the action. It'S pretty hard to figure out what you have to do, actually.
To reach your goal you can choose between three different routes, but they all end the same.

After just a few minutes of play, I ended up giving up the hope of knowing what to do. At the time, this kind of game was fun. You had the booklet sold with you explaining the possible orders, and explaining to you at least the beginning of the game. There I am Larry, a guy dressed in black, and the most exciting thing I've been through was getting arrested by a policeman because I walked on the turf... In short, I do not know any more, especially since the character is slow, too slow, and seems to have to travel the whole city to find what it is.
note:...
The most:...
The minus:..
Update: apparently, the manuals and the card are available in the game files, and the command ' help ' can find the commands "f" and "FF" to control the speed of the game. Thanks to some bananas, Rainbows & seals, I may be, thanks to him, discover the bottom of the game.
