Scapeghost review

"The puzzles are all nicely done, though with some of them there's a feeling that you've been there before in earlier games like Knight Orc and Gnome Ranger. What a shame Level 9 are bowing out of text 'n' piccies style adventures with this good, but not brilliant game." - Zero Magazine (1989)

Retro gamer collector's corner:

The box contained the following feelies:

  • a 4-color poster with instructions
  • a clue sheet order form
  • a 4-color poster with an advertisement for several adventure games
