What I'm Doing Here

Because I enjoy adventure games, I decided to start this blog and record my fun and frustrations as I play various adventures and some RPGs. I try not to spoil the games, so you can read and play, or play and read. I'm also reviewing some games, as I used to do in the past for Four Fat Chicks. I hope I'll spark your interest in playing, or at least entertain you with my musings. Please note that my musings are only speculations. You, or the game designer, may disagree with my opinions. At the end of each entry is a link to the next entry about that game, and you'll find a list of beginning links to the right, just under my cat's photo. Feel free to comment and play along! Enjoy!

Avadon 11: Off to See the Wizard


Well he was hard to find, but I have vanquished the evil wizard. So he wasn't the endgame. Something else will be tougher.


Actually he really isn't all that tough if you realize what to do. Get him away from his summoned demon assistant and you can attack him. Sometimes. The tough bit is getting through all the imps and various hellish enemies that the demon summons. (That demon is really a great guy. Good humor. Be sure to talk with him after the battle. Ask him to talk about himself. Ha.)


Fortunately, I was strong enough to do it. And it did it with my shaman, too. Not the sorceress. See? If you give her enough dexterity points, she becomes quite useful. Really, she's good.


The main fun of getting the wizard is all the stuff you have to go through to find him. He has three, count 'em, three towers. You have to gain entrance to that area. And there is a whole lotta great loot! I've got so many good enhancements now that I don't know what to do with them all.


Also got a nice spider, the Widow of Bones, who frankly wasn't that tough. Got numerous demons along the way. Plenty of ghosts and ghasts. Looted the shaman-in-the-woods' bedroom. Well, she charges too much for her stuff.


So that was a long quest, but quite a good one. Nifty.


And yup, I've been sent back to the Kva for the third time. Strange. Jeff normally doesn't re-use areas like this. I assume he had to get the game out in record time, and it's a from-the-ground-up brand new game. So he's become efficient. It'll be very interesting to see what the sequel looks like!


However, the game really is going to have to wait for a bit. I want to get a good head start on my Kirkus books. So, later for Avadon!
