| Review: | A treasure hunt set against, of all things, Hamlet. Not
all that Shakespearean, really - the major characters from the play are
present, but their function is limited to blocking doorways until you
give them the right item. Knowledge of the play makes a few of the puzzles
easier, but mostly it's just a treasure hunt set in and around a Danish
castle. Frequent randomized combat and several mazes, although even in the
mazes most connections between rooms are logical. Some fairly obscure
puzzles and an extremely obscure riddle in the endgame. Lots of purely
decorative rooms.
