Skullduggery 1986
Skullduggery is a decent IF game that offers a novel combination of ASCII graphics and text, but unfortunately bogged down with a simplistic parser. Carl's succinct review says it all about this so-so old game that doesn't quite stand out from the crowd: "[Skullduggery is] ...a game with an old-school feel,...
