A short but OK adventure, basically a sequence of "use the right object" segmented puzzles. This one is a typical example of constrained escape-from-prison beginning which stumps half the players while there is a trivial solution that can be immediately found, but vocabulary gets in the way of finding it. Infuriated a few reviewers back in the day.
