Soul CrystalCollection: German Underdogs Interactive Fiction Graphical IF
Rating: 8.79 (53 votes)
Soul Crystal is one of the better German text adventures, with a fun and interesting story, a fairly good parser, and a mouse-driven interface. The plot sounds as if it were inspired by Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland: you are a lad named Dave, spending your holidays alone in a hotel near a mysterious loch in Scotland. You go swimming in the lake and dive through a waterfall – on the other side of it, you find yourself in a strange fantasy-like world. The game is very nicely presented with excellent music and (small) graphics. Probably one of the last commercial games of its kind.Reviewed by: Rob
