This has got to be The Adventure Of The Year for the C64 - it's as complex and texty as an Infocom game, with the bonus of graphics, the like of which have not been seen before in any C64 Adventure. Read Review

100% all round. The Pawn is so good that to compare it in the same category as many of the adventures currently on the market is to do it a gross injustice. Read Review

If you are a keen adventurer, The Pawn is a must; if you merely enjoy adventure games, you'll find few to beat it. Read Review

One to ask Santa for... Each picture has to be loaded in separately from disk but the wait is certainly worth it. The pictures are very detailed and knock spots off anything seen previously on the C64. Read Review
