Praise for Passage

Reviews

"It wasn't long before I cared about what happened to Riff and his family, and found joy in the whimsical characters, good dialogue, and well-developed, well-integrated puzzles ... I hated to see the game end."

-- Computer Games magazine (Oct. 2001 issue)

"...If you have played and have fond memories of the Sierra adventure games, then Passage is definitely up your alley. If you have never solved the puzzles or traveled the imaginative worlds of Roberta Williams, then maybe Passage will serve as your invitation to research more about the rich history of adventure games...
...The graphics are beautiful and very colorful hand-painted pastel chalk over pencil sketches...
...The puzzles are masterfully constructed and follow rules of logic that are too often broken...."

-- JustAdventure.com

"I personally loved [the graphics.] All of the backgrounds are hand-painted using pencil and chalk and this artistic style lends itself to the game incredibly well ... 4 Stars!"
"If you're an adventure fan or like to read the occasional fantasy novel, you will certainly like Passage. "

-- HappyHippo.com

"[Passage] is an engaging game and it oozes enthusiasm. I had a lot of fun fitting it all together . . . there are a lot of lessons here for many commercial game developers in building a story and designing puzzles that involve, challenge and entertain the player."
"Passage is like a trip back to the days of innocence, cute graphics, cute music, cute characters, and even a scoring system to let you know when you are doing the right thing."
