> I just finished "Fantasy Quest" after 6 or 7 months...and I worked on it every day!!! I obviosuly have no sense of direction, LOL. I really enjoyed it and almost felt a little let down when it was finally over.

> I see some of you have beat Perils of Akumos - I'm impressed! How many hours, approximately, did you spend on it? I'm about 8 hours into it over a week or so and am hooked!

I did it with about 15-17 hours of solid play (spread out over about a 36 hour period-- my ISP was down for a good 8 hours of that, and I DID sleep.) Of course, I was desperate to finish it first, and I have been playing those sorts of games since I was about seven years old... Don't get frustrated if it takes a lot longer than that. (I would say that Perils of Akumos is at least twice as hard as Fantasy Quest, probably a fair bit more-- but worth every second of it, just as Fantasy Quest was.)
