Dopplegänger

Authors:Thomas Long and Payman Parastaran
Genre:Science Fiction
Released:1985
Review:

I'll admit that I haven't played this one very much. How can I review it, then? Simply because I must. There are two urgent warnings you must have about this game. Firstly, you cannot save your game to your hard drive; you must have a floppy to save. Secondly, "put x in y" is not the same as "insert x in y". The former will not produce the side-effects of the latter. For days, I was unable to leave the first three rooms because of this. That said, this game is a Blade Runner-ish search for a missing experimental android in a futuristic city. The parser is very weak. More info will probably follow.
