The admin for this holiday had been on a list that included consolidating pension plans, going to the dentist, replying to at least eight emails from my accountant (I am freelance) and sewing up a hole in the arm of my favourite jacket. “Oh, I checked and I don’t need one,” I blithely replied. The next time it happened, I was 28 and en route to Heathrow, to fly to Miami with my then boyfriend. Luckily, the flight I missed had been oversubscribed, so the replacement was free: the funds I’d spent months scraping together were dented but not totally depleted, and I decided this was a learning experience. I flew back to London that same day, got a visa the next morning from the Indian consulate, and the day after boarded a new flight. Of course, it didn’t, because international travel rules are international travel rules. I’d booked my flights and the hotel, and although I was dimly aware that I should get a visa, the website had a tiny script and the forms seemed difficult to navigate I clicked away and decided it would all, somehow, just work out. “Travel agent? Have you heard of the internet, Mum?” My mum had suggested I visit a travel agent before booking this three-week trip to the north of India and I’d balked. I was 18, in Schiphol airport, Amsterdam, not boarding the second half of my flight to Delhi. “I’m sorry,” he said, looking at me, now flinty eyed. It contains some fairly blood-curdling scenes, especially at the end.He handed my passport back. Finally, be warned! This gory game is NOT for children. Horror Soft has developed a major new adventure system for 16-bit machines it's a bit like Sierra's, a bit like Mindscape's, but it has an identity all of its own. Granted, though, that it'll be the graphics output on which the player's attention will mainly be focused. The text messages, too, tend to be flat and uninspired, despite there being a reputed 90k text in the game before compression. But whilst the animation of the characters in the story is very lifelike, intellectually they are wooden. The animated storyline is consistent from location to location. SAVE and RESTORE are two very necessary options, and because you're likely to die a horrible death at any time, SAVE should be used regularly! But when you do save a position, make sure you note it down, for there is no way of listing these within the game. They can be taken by dragging into the INV icon. ROOM similarly displays all takeable objects in a given location. INV replaces the graphics screen with an 'icon list' of objects carried. Movement is by mouse, or, again, by keyboard text. But whole sentences such as PUT BRIEFCASE IN WARDROBE will be accepted by the parser. An object can then be selected by clicking on the appropriate part of the picture, and the whole command is then entered by clicking the right hand mouse button. Instead of actually typing commands, a verb can be selected with the left hand mouse button, and it will appear in the input area below the text window. To the left of the screen arc direction icons, and to the right, verb icons. The game can be played from the keyboard or mouse. Your object is to shop the guilty ones to the local bobby, and rescue people before they are ritually sacrificed. It turns out that the Devil has taken over the lives of some of the villagers, and horrific crimes are taking place there.
Just before you are about to leave, you receive a disturbing letter which states that you have to stay at the Dog and Duck and that your mother is away visiting her sick sister. In Personal Nightmare, your father is an oddball vicar, and a letter from your mother prompts you to visit them.
