Neil
is back with a sequel to his earlier work Road to Inverurie.
"Setting/story
for ALBA 02
PLACE:
ALBA (ANCIENT SCOTLAND)
The
year is 1303 A.D.
In
Alba01 (Road to Inverurie) you escaped from the English and made your way
back to the village of Inverurie. Thus, 'Inverurie' starts with you at
the edge of town and you must make your way through the town and then escape
into the Scottish countryside."

Sounds
easy enough hmmm? If you enjoyed Road to Inverurie you will like this sequel.
Top notch architecture (similar to the masterpiece "Shadow Over Innsmouth"
by Steve Roscoe) help bring to life your flight from the English as you
skulk your way back to Scottish territory.
Neil
has again included the poor tortured crucified wretches impaled to the
walls. But it is these dying brothers that offer you clues along the way.
Also water sequences are helped out by bubbles which are a tip off that
something important is around.
I loved
the night of the living dead part that is incorporated in this tale. The
undead rise from their graves, and you are around to greet them. Yeech.
A strong
follow-up to an excellent level, aw come on its the next chapter you gotta'
see what happens next. |
Middle
of the night hope everyone is snuggled in their beds. Maybe I can just
tip toe through here.
Nice
church, maybe I can seek refuge here. After all, they can't possibly attack
me inside a church. "Sanctuary, Sanctuary, Sanctuary". Well it worked in
The Hunchback of Notre Dame. |
