Pintown

Author:Stefan Blixt
Genres:Romance
Slice of life
Released:1997
Review:

A reasonably novel premise for IF--mend your relationship with your girlfriend--but ruined by bugs, including one that makes the game unfinishable, and general game design problems that make what you're supposed to do next, according to the walkthrough, a series of total surprises. Lots of read-the-author's-mind puzzles.

Rating: **
