First five minutes were boring by foolio 03/30/2003, 10:39pm PST
I haven't gotten around to the next five minutes. The first five minutes I played sometime last year.

Of course most games are boring for the first [INSERT TIME FRAME], but this game looks older than any other game currently available, so it didn't have the draw of most modern boring games. It reminded me of 1. Castle of the Winds, a shareware game I played sometime in the late nineties, and 2. A game called "Moria", a game I downloaded off of a BBS sometime in the 1996-era. Moria is Diablo--one town to buy stuff from two vendors, no plot, and randomly generated dungeons. The difference is instead of beautifully rendered pygmies, you fight the ampersand symbol (&).
