Dusk Over Elfinton

Walking down a quiet alleyway, your eye catches the reflection of the moon on a broken mirror. On closer inspection, a ghostly apparition is seen, which beckons you into another world.

It all starts off in a library, and from here you venture into numerous Quilled locations. A two-part game, the first involves the retrieval of an orb, whilst in the second you continue adventuring around Elfinton.

The problems entwined in the game are often quite hard, but not too difficult. The vocabulary is fairly standard and there is no real trouble in trying to find the correct phrase required.

Not exactly my cup of tea, but a good problem-solving exercise.
