Torin's Passage
This game was magnificent, and well ahead of it's time. The story was fresh and engaging, the puzzles ranged from relatively easy to almost frustratingly difficult, and the characters were entertaining and liekable. The game's humor was far from droll, dry or incomprehensible,and players of any age could enjoy it... that is, players with taste. The only fault was that the game did end a little abruptly, but this could be viewed as an attempt to leave the rest of the story up to the player's imagination. I, for one, loved this game, and I know many other players who did as well.

A cartoon adventure that might as well be called "Sierra's Lost CD Game" due to the quick disappearance from store shelves months after its release, Torin's Passage is a diversion for Al Lowe (better known for Leisure Suit Larry) that aims to please young gamers with its charming graphics and relatively easy puzzles. However, the average story, droll humor that are incomprehensible for targeted group and dry for adults, and short length makes it only slightly better than average. Recommended only as a diversion between games, budding young gamers, or to Al Lowe fans.
