THE VERDICT
,Im really not quite sure who
ascination is meant to appeal to.
s an RPG it's severely underdevel-
ped. The game is very linear in
e way that it does not really
you to progress until you
done everything you need t
o within a particular set of
r
osts
of finding objects and then
c nding the relevant use for them
a h then leads to either anothe •
t
t or a bit of information. The
i
o ace is easy and simple to use
nbut
limited in what it can achieve
PLIYAIILITY s
.
.e. you can LOOK, TAKE and US .
ut not much else. So, if you're not
P
rgoing
to buy this for the role-play-
oing
what does that leave? Hmmm, J
b
LASTIIILITY think it's the (and I quote) "fasck
l
, nation e with your female charade
m,
rticularly sensual and erotic pe
s pective" or to put it simply, the
gItillation
aspect. At every opportu-
e the game will take the chance
n
some naughty pixellsed pin-
e
rups.
A good example was when I

to search the bathroom.

Needless to say the pi oa

Being French the game ngraphics
are of a reasonably high
standard; the objects are - dearly drawn and backgrounds
are detailed so you can see objects present easily. The
music is competently done - - -

This is where you start your wild adventures. On the bed is the dead passenger's
briefcase, within you must find the vial and then hide It somewhere
else! I mean, it would be foolish to carry it around wouldn't it?
So whore would be a good place? That fridge looks handy and that jug of
water convenient. Any ideas?

why - I'm no population psychologist
- but the fact is illustrated perfectly
by Coktel Vision's latest release. After
all, it IS billed as the 'role-playing
game to be enjoyed when the kids
have gone to bed"
The game is different
from most RPG's in
that the central character
is a women
(although I very much
doubt they did it in
the name of sexual
equality). You see, you
play an airline pilot
called Doralice May, a
femme fatale out to
have a good time.
However, on a flight
from Paris to Miami
one of your passengers
keels over and
dies but not before he
implores you to take a vial from within
his briefcase and deliver it to Jeffery
Miller, President of Quantum
Unlimited Labs.
Within the vial is an amazingly
powerful cerebral chemical that will
revolutionise neuro-p.ychiatry as we
know it. Should it fall into the wrong
hands, however, its potential for
harm is immense. Needless to say,
you accept the mission,..
