I would like to put a plug in for "Fools Errand", by Cliff Jonhson (Miles
Computing - I think). This is one of the most intelligent, difficult,
challenging, frustrating, (...on & on & on...) games I have ever encountered
anywhere. I can't praise this game high enough. My 14 yr old son (he's a DC
& BDC expert) and I spent 3 solid weeks (some of them by me till 12-1 in the
morning) all our spare time solving this game. I really can't say enough
about this game and eagerly await whetever else comes from the mind of Cliff
Johnson. (If Cliff is on the net - he has my permission to use whatever I
have said in any advirtisement for his game).
