![]() Artistic intent is valid to consider, but not necessary to review. Every person plays a game in the context of their prior experiences. My first were Sierra/Lucasarts but Larry 1 and the likes. Or i like this dish, and you don't.īut I am absolutely with Sargon on this one, in the end what they did 30 years ago, has no bearing on the game now, most would not even remember the game, as it's an entire generation ago.Īnd while i personally have that age, and adventure games being my favorite genre, i also never played pure text adventures, this one included so i can't also compare it. In the end i agree, they are just one persons opinion, i may find that one car very nice looking, and you don't. Not to be nitpicking but i picked 7 (and i probably can find more) over 4, including metacritic who bundles several reviews from writers and players, i think it's a representative. I think the reviewer just didn't quite get what we were going for. It's a great game that has meant a lot to millions of players. We understood our role as historians and wanted to preserve the vision of the original authors Crowther and Woods. I would imagine that somewhere there is a painter, who if asked to restore the Mona Lisa, would try to improve any flaws they observed in the painting. We treated this as a history preservation project, NOT as an attempt to create a Triple-A title. But there's no denying that it is based on an old game, and that the puzzles and design are taken from the original. The game looks and plays awesome and we are delighted with how it turned out. ![]() We felt a point and click interface, with our Sierra heritage, was the right interface for the game, and that Sierra fans would feel right at home. It was developed in the 70s, so we went for a 70s style of graphics in parts of the game. The game is a 50 year old game reimagined for today's market. I would think that especially at the end of this pandemic that any attraction would be doing all they can to draw in customers and make sure they are treating them fairly and with respect.I was disappointed with the review, but I understand why the reviewer saw it that way. This was a extremely bad experience, I haven’t encountered anyone on our entire vacation that was as rude or intent on not accommodating customers as the people working today at colossal caves. Sadly this is our last day in tuscon and we decided to leave as it was clear the staff didn’t have any intent on serving us as customers. She said it would take too long to process and move up our tickets. The 10am tour left with 9 spots available and even as they were leaving we asked again if we could go and the lady at the cash register said no. The lady at the cash register told her no and that she wouldn’t do it. Another lady who was the tour guide asked if we could be added to the group and/or go on the 10:30 tour. We asked if we could be added to the group since 9 people hadn’t showed up and they said no. There were 9 empty spots out of twenty in the 10 am tour group. The tour at 10am was about to leave and they had said it was sold out. The lady at the cash register along with the gentleman were incredibly rude and acted like bullies toward us. He then told me that it wasn’t his choice to be in the Tuscon passport and he wished they were never in it. ![]() When I told them it wasn’t on their website, a gentleman who was in the office told me that there is way too much to put in their website and they couldn’t possibly do that. This is not stated on their website or the Tuscon passport site. They told us that we were supposed to purchase tickets online and then come in with the coupon and get a refund. ![]() We also tried to call and was told today that their phone have been down for three days. Yesterday we tried to order tickets online for the 10am cave tour, but there was no way to redeem our passport discount. We purchased the Tuscon passport for the local attractions. We are visiting from Maryland and had planned on visiting Colossal Caves. ![]()
