* Extremely tactical combat. There is no randomness in combat. You always hit and always do full damage. This means that careful placement is the difference between success and failure.
* Heavy on plot and characterization. A story is told. It is not just kill things for no reason. (If you want to just kill things for no reason, POWDER is recommended)
* Quick to complete. You can likely fully explore and enjoy the game in an hour or two. You are then free to get on with your life.
Resized bmp from Savescummer port by AapoRantalainen used. Unpack to a directory on ext2/3, run from bin (text.txt needs to be in the directory above the binary). Shift has to be held down for uppercase (like 'Q'uitting).
