 www.hardcoregaming101.net/masterlu/masterlu.htmFinally carried over from the Guide to Classic Graphic Adventures, a point-and-click adventure based on Robert Ripley's columns about strange and bizarre historical facts (or fictions) from the 1930s. |

This was one of the first adventure games I've ever played. It was part of a 10 game compilation box that also included other adventure games Kyrandia 3 and Death Gate, but also games like Steel Panthers and Pinball 3D-VCR.
Haven't played this one in years though. I remember having trouble getting it to run on dosbox.

I remember PC Gamer magazine here in the US was really into this game, they did a cover feature and it got pretty good reviews, but I didn't try it until years later, when writing the book. I was pretty underwhelmed though, at the time the digitized graphics probably looked really good, but from a design and writing standpoint, I felt the whole thing was done far better in the Broken Sword games (which came later, of course).

I remember getting stuck for *years* in germany on this one. That all locations kept being accessible didn't help. Almost as confusing as Azrael's Tear which i eventually beat (but that is a better game. *Article hint*)
