| | Review: Curses |
| | This may not seem like a major criticism in light of the game's many virtues, and, indeed, it is not, but it's a point nonetheless I feel that prevents this game from snagging a place among the all time best text adventures. | | | The situation the protagonist is faced with is essentially ordinary, but the correct way to go about getting out of the situation is going to be anything but. | | | The puzzles are a little tough...this is a Graham Nelson game, for goodness sakes. |

| | Tasking Ariel in Graham Nelson's The Tempest (D.G. Jerz) |
| | The author's erudition is clear, from the simple choice of subject matter to the deft interweaving of other Shakespearean and Renaissance phrases into the play's text when necessary (for example, to the command "throw x at character" the game responds "I have no aim, no, no chance of a palpable hit.", a phrase echoing Hamlet). | | | In transcript Tempest-3, the first several commands ("look," "kiss miranda," "hit prospero," and "throw phial at prospero") do nothing to advance the plot, but they do establish the setting and lay down some of the rules of this fictional world. | | | I don't see this as a weakness in Nelson's ability, but rather as evidence of the complex layering of textual meanings and interactive possibilities that native IF typically represents. |

| | Amazon.com: The Inform Designer's Manual: Books |
| | Inform (the compiler) was written by Graham Nelson while he was writing his classic game "Curses." So not only are you getting a manual written by a top notch programmer, but an excellent writer as well. | | | As a professional games developer, with several titles on the PC and XBox under my belt, I can say that Nelson's 4th Edition Inform Designers Manual is easily the most friendly read of all game development technical books. | | | Thus, it was a joy to discover the Inform development system while in college, and to have the tools to develop my own text adventure in the same format as the games I had grown up with. |
