The One That Got Away
| Author: | Leon Lin | | Genre: | Slice of life | | Released: | 1995 | | Review: | A fish story - can you catch the legendary Big One? A small game that
emphasizes the fiction aspect of IF - the puzzles are few and simple, but
there's a lot of description and dialogue (kind of like A Mind Forever
Voyaging, except funnier and about fish.) Good fishing simulation.
Exaggerates wildly. Probably good for beginners. Be sure to ask Bob about
everything in the game.
