I like just about everything in here - they've got some fairly nice art. (higher-res than the NES, espically on the Mac version) The only gripes I have are minor - first off, the plot is a bit generic (it still works though) and the other is that I miss the NES version with the music which I thought was pretty great, although if you want that you can just look it up and have fun. I'd say the game is worth picking up if you're interested in some old point 'n clicks, and if you can then pick up the full MacVenture Collection as it's a really nice value for what you get.. The torches don't flicker momentarily before going out?! I suppose I could count my actions and light a torch at the appropriate time\u2026\u2026. Remember that feeling when you slammed the floppy into the old commidore and played this game late at night. The feeling of both determination and fear wrapped in your child mind? That feeling caused me to buy this game, unfotunatly it was just a memory.Otherwise this game is complete tripe.. I grew up knowing the NES version of this game. I remember the nightmares that it caused, and the fun that I had playing it. Though the MacVenture edition is the original, I feel the NES version is superior. It was a bit easier to play, a bit more forgiving, and it had an awesome soundtrack.That being said, this game is still pretty awesome - consider it the NES version on Nightmare difficulty. There is no forgiveness, and your torches will burn out 10 times faster than they did in the NES version.. I love that someone cared enough about an ancient Macintosh exclusive point and click to preserve it on steam. I am not wild about the game, but you get historian points!. This is the worst version of one of history's best Adventure games. With no soundtrack and no indication of when the torch will go out, this version of "Shadowgate" is practically unplayable. Combine these major flaws with the weird Mac OS interface where every UI element is in a separate window (much like The GIMP open source PhotoShop clone), and the game is really just an awful experience.I love "Shadowgate" but I hate these "MacVenture" ports. Anyone who wants to enjoy the game would be better off with the NES version or the Remastered version available here on Steam.. Shadowgate is one of those must play classic series. An unforgiving point and click adventure not for the easily frustrated. 10\/10, didn't make it past the front door before my torch died and I broke my neck.
