Descriptions (2)

Totally re-landscaped but loyal version of original game, Prisoner: Full-color hi-res graphics added, puzzles reworded, obstacles expanded.
Sophistication and difficult exercise in intimidation with elements of satire.
Escape from an island requires player to solve logical puzzles, overcome obstacles, and answer riddles. Excellent computer fare; nothing else like it.

This is a high-resolution graphics remake of a previous text-based adventure game (only on the Apple II) inspired by the cult-classic British television show about a former spy who is abducted and sent to a resort-themed "prison" where his captors attempt to get him to reveal why he resigned from his classified job. The game takes place on "The Island," where the player travels from building to building, each hosting a metaphorical quest in which the player's creative thinking skills are tested. Players demonstrating individual thinking eventually gain access to the Island's "Caretaker," and their ensuing conversation (using a language parser) can lead to the player's freedom.
