Nox Archaist

I somehow missed this game when it came out and picked it up at a steep discount, but I am glad I did so. I am very familiar with the type-in style of interface (this game does give a nice tutorial) and although I never owned an Apple II I did have other home computers of the era and still enjoy emulated computing mostly on a C64 but have delved into other systems as well in search of these types of games, recently including The Magic Candle series. All that out of the way, this game hits all the right notes for me. It has that charm that's hard to explain - for example when you enter the first town and see a door just slightly within view, and you want to know what's behind it. That's the experience I had with Ultima III long ago. So, props and bravo to the developer(s) for giving me something fresh to sink my teeth into. And lucky me I got the expansion on discount too!
