How did I miss Magnetic Scrolls??! magnetiX offers what appears to be a really superbly done interpreter -- on first glance, I give it 5 stars, but we'll see after what a few hours of play will do (I'm hopeful.) That leaves the GAMES, which are really fine -- stylistically, somewhere between Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and some of the very recherche plots and purple prose InfoCom was serving up in its decline. These games are well-written, with a British slant. As you might expect, it takes brass to offer a text adventure based on Lewis Carroll's novels (i.e., Wonderland), but Rev. Dodgson's legacy is in good hands at Magnetic Scrolls. Thanks for bringing this to Macintosh!
