Review:

This is a very stylish interpretation of the classic story. It has some excellent location graphics and a gothic typeface that is complemented by colourful backgrounds.

Best of all, this is not just a case of window dressing as it has some cunning puzzles, fine location descriptions and a very good parser. It even uses pauses effectively, adding to the tension and making for a memorable game.
