Once the novelty (and exhilaration that you're playing what looks like a decent graphical adventure game for free) wears out, the game turns out to be a typical adventure with a decent mix of inventory-based and logic puzzles. It suffers, however, from the extreme "hunt the pixel" syndrome (you may well have to click on every single innocuous-looking rock in the game to pick up "useful" ones), and the fact that clues to some non-inventory puzzles are actually NOT inside the game, but in --you guessed it-- included in Cherry Coke bottles. Okay, we all know that this IS a marketing gimmick, and that it's not really free-- but hiding clues in millions of Cherry Coke bottles randomly is pushing the concept a bit too far. It's a little surprising that Cherry Coke was a flop-- maybe they didn't sell this "free game" idea well enough. Anyway, I suggest you download the walkthrough to pass these annoying marketing ploys.

The game does have its own moments. The "trap the lion" game, for example, is a great example of a Myst-style puzzle that actually is fun to play (and figure out how to play). All the inventory-based puzzles make sense as well, once you find all the items. Overall, this is a decent, albeit very short, adventure that's worth a look... if you can stand a constant reminder of *shudder* Cherry Coke.
