Apprentice
| Author: | Bert Lee | | Genre: | Fantasy | | Released: | 1991 | | Review: | Fantasy with a slight mideastern flavor. To complete your apprenticeship
and become a full Magician, all you have to do is reach the Guild Hall with
the items given to you at the beginning of the game. Although this in
itself is not trivial, there are several more tasks you can perform along
the way to increase your status in the Guild: perform magic, recover
artifacts, etc. Lots of plot branching and multiple solutions.
Suffers from a deadly bottleneck at the very start, plus of course the
usual AGT ills.
