Welcome to Hell

Authors:Brandon Meyers and Kevin Norton
Genres:Horror
Humor
Pornographic
Fantasy>Mythological>Afterlife
Released:1998
Review:

In what seems to be an increasingly common adventure game plot, you are dropped into Hell and must learn to cope with the situation. Nevertheless, Perdition's Flames this ain't. It is an AGT game masquerading as Inform; you simply wander around picking up objects and then giving them to the monsters that explicitly ask you for them. You kill a lot of people, too. Adolescent humor, a constant stream of profanity, and no real puzzles whatsoever.

One of the authors is apparently the same Velvet Jester who co-wrote Slacker X. The game does not, however, specify which.

Rating: **
