Not the best pirate-themed text adventure I've played, but it does have its own certain charm. With the blocky Mode 7 graphics that pop up occasionally between gameplay and the jolly music, it reminded me in some ways of those glorious old educational classroom games.
In summary, this is an easily solvable adventure... The messages are very descriptive, some even witty. Read Review
A major frustration with some adventure games is the same old response when you pick up an object or give the computer an instruction it can't understand. Not with Flint's Gold. It has a library of interesting responses. Read Review
This adventure is not without problems - but it is wonderfully entertaining with it! Read Review
An excellent, or even 'swashbuckling' adventure as the description says. I enjoyed every minute of it. Read Review
The sound effects and music are something else, but the game is not remarkable... Just a little too difficult. Read Review
The teletext pictures used in Flint's Gold are well-executed and animated in machine code giving a rapid response. Read Review
