At first a collaborative project, this one was supposed to be actually a rewarding gaming experience. I dunno if it is really, I just gave it my best. This should be the download of primary interest for you guys out there that want some real adventure games from this Helm dude for a change. Can't promise I'll deliver though, cause I have mixed feelings about how good this one is. Judge for yourselves. I still like SQ1 better...

Nice graphics, but a very clumsy interface. A chore.

well, after i heard helm was quite a well known artist, and he seems to have a lot of ideas of how adventure games should be like, i had to try his games. i could only get my hands on this one. well, kinda disappointing. the interface was very unresponsive. basically i gave up on the game. not much fun at all. graphics: i'm guessing he did this about 10 years ago, or there is a big difference between doing graphics for a game and spending 40 hours on one sprite.
atleast i got some inspiration, because this means that basically everybody can become a good pixelartist, you just need a bit of practise.

an amazing game altogether. the graphics are tops and the story is great but FAR TOO SHORT! I wish there was more of it.
