Book-I - magnificent!

[elstyr]

It was said already before, I know, I'm sorry, I can't resist..
Played the demo for about 40 min this early morning (never heard of the game before until I "accidentally" dropped over a very old and famous PSX emulation site today - Danke, Pete! oO). Then got stuck in the forums and 1 hour later I bought the full version (I still don't know where the demo ends, never came that far, it wasn't necessary :). Playing the game (incl. the demo) now since 15 hours non stop, it addicts definitely. Its like in the old days. Turn based, crispy pixel graphics, mind candy, but combined with astonishing sound and nice decent bits of modern visual effects. And the pixels you don't see - you'll see them just in your mind - that's the charm - the game is forcing your imagination.
One of the best, well.. _the_ best, I don't know any other :)! Big big thanks! Love it!
And a big hug to the creator of the sound track! I've restarted the demo several times just to hear the introducing song again (until I discovered the .ogg :). That track was one of the 2 reasons to let me buy the CD version.
Keep on, Basilisk dudes! & a huge greet to this community - was a fine reading here today, and thanks for marking spoilers as spoilers :).

Greets from Berlin, Elstyr (one of these "Pupa's".. we're all still kids ;)

@acoustibop: Exactly. That's what linked me to this place.

That's what I guessed, Elstyr.
