Are Reviews Just A Matter Of Taste?

I was annoyed by Bob Chappell's review of the Oric's adventure game Hell's Temple. It is not a maze game, but complex adventure, requiring strategy to win.

Also, the criticisms of the monsters were unfounded; altogether, there are seventy-six monsters all requiring a slightly different approach. There could have been pictures of the monsters, but that would have severely cut their numbers.

What's more, the game is original, not just a reworking of Tolkien, and bug free.

The proof of the pudding is in the eating, and Hell's Temple is one of the best adventure games for the Oric.
