This month's CGotM is "The Fool's Quest", definitely the least well-known game from the lot of the INFAMOUS Alexis Janson; and a well deserved win it is too, in my opinion. Some may criticise this game as not being as complex as Code Red or Mission enigma, but I believe it's still much fun to play and well worth the time to do so.
Boasting some of the best non-STK graphics ever made, The Fool's quest provides a hearty adventure that should be part of every ZZT'ers' diet. The plot is simple and again effective - as The Fool, you are sent on a mission to rid the realm of an impending darkness. Sound familiar? It should be, by now. =)
Additionally, The Fool's Quest is open to replay, having 2 endings up its jestered sleeve. I can surely say that it is one of the best pre-STK games ever, and more than enough of a game to satiate any "Fool"!
A decently solid play, once you've given it a sporting chance to sink in.
