Does sound like a nice game I'd like to play. If I currently didn't have a lot of games on my plate, I'd probably download this now for a weekend play. Good review, EmP, and I'll spare you pointing out any spelling errors, since I know a certain someone likes doing that. :)

Actually, I just forgot what the errors were and didn't feel like rereading it again.

I also liked the review, a lot. It was really short but didn't feel like it needed to be longer. I don't totally understand your key line: "EvilQuest gets more than enough to justify its already low asking price."

Are you trying to say that EvilQuest has just enough wrong that it justifies its low cost, or are you trying to say that it is well worth the buy at such a low cost? It's that word "gets." I keep feeling like it should be "gives."

Thanks, both. There isn't really a lot to say about EvilQuest so I guess I'll same my endless rambling for my next review.

That particular line, Zipp, was one of those typos Pick mentioned. I've gone back and edited that, as well as a few others that I found. I'll refind the ability to catch them all again on first try, someday!

Don't you mean "save" your rambling for next review? Damn, EmP, you're even getting spelling errors in your responses about spelling errors, now! I like to think it makes you all the more loveable, though.

I can honestly remember a time when I could type and/or spell. I was really smug about it! Perhaps they are right about the long-term side effects of alcohol after all.

You're just thinking bigger these days, that's all.

Also, as there never was an EvilQuest game, there really should be. It sounds like it is tough to get the writing tone right, though.

"Cystalis" also reminded me I never played Crystalis, either.

This sounds like a great game, something I'd probably enjoy if only I had time to play it.

Just so you know, EmP, "puerperal" refers to a type of fever commonly caught during childbirth. I had to look it up because I had never encountered the word before. I'm pretty sure you meant "peripheral," which more commonly refers to vision... unless that horned helmet has some really nasty side effects.

What if something appears that shouldn't? You either dismiss it, or you accept that there is much more to the world than you think. Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2

No -- the fever thing. That's what I meant.

(thanks!)
