| Review: | Try to find your friend within five days of arriving in London. A simple
game, designed to teach English. I suspect that people learning English will
find it easier than native speakers, due to the necessity of using
textbook-like formulas for communication - "May I have some pizza, please?"
will work where "I would like some pizza" will not. Very limited command
set, no inventory, occasional still EGA graphics, some in-game hints. Money
and food are factors. Will quiz you on English history (answers can be found
in the game). If you're not familiar with London, I suggest getting a map to
play this game. A simple one will do.
