Review by Underdogs:
Steve Meretzsky's first game for Legend is a raunchy adventure of the best caliber that is best described as his earlier classic Leather Goddesses of Phobos meets Zork. Help bumbling nerd and wizard wannabe Ernie Eaglebeak escape the clutches of his evil stepfather and realize his dreams of becoming an apprentice wizard. Puzzles involving spells are very clever and logical ("Island of Lost Soles" puzzle being one of my most favorite puzzles of all time, and numerous little details enhance the atmosphere. A great start to a great series. Two thumbs up!
