| Review: | A short fantasy with a theme of illusion and an interesting substitute
for a scoring system. Your town is subject to a curse that is turning
people, bit by bit, into animals. The closer you come to meeting the
demands of the wizard responsible, the more your wolf's paw turns
back into a hand. (Of course, you don't really wind up appeasing an
evil wizard, but I'll spare you the plot twists.) Sparse and linear,
but with good detail and a couple of well-done magic items. If there
were more to it, it would be one of the finest of its type. Features
a hint menu.
Rating: ****
