Pondorously slow adventure with an excruciatingly yawn-inducing map.
On the plus side, fairly logical puzzles and quite a bit to do. On the minus side, its dull.
Its not llama-entable though.

A grid-based adventure with an Aztec theme (no **** Sherlock..). Your quest is to rescue the sun god, who has been kidnapped. Not strictly a text adventure in the purest sense - there are just a handful of commands you can use, so there's no struggling for the right vocab to solve puzzles.
Bit of a slog to get through overall; it's not actually all that hard to complete as long as you (a) make a complete map (there are 8 areas of 10x10 'locations') and (b) explore EVERY SINGLE square on the map. There are quite a lot of slightly unfair insta-death occurrences, but they're location specific so you can easily avoid them the second time around.
The other negative point, and without giving too much away, is that it's easy to miss locations because you don't know they're there. The areas are occupied by a number of solid objects that form the walls of the maze - however, some of them aren't solid, which you only find out by moving into every single one of them. If you can overlook that, and have the patience, not a bad game overall with a nice atmosphere. There's a decent amount of content and some nice graphics, though moving around can be a little sluggish. 3/5.
