I thought it was great! Easily one of the funniest underground adventures out there. Also, combining random things gave a specific funny line more often than I expected (instead of a default doesn't-work line). And I was pleasantly surprised a few times when I thought I'd ended up in a dead end but then found out what to do, though I need to think about how good a thing that is.
Some downsides:
- you sorely need to allow keyboard shortcuts instead of right-click cycling, though that's probably a limitation of AGS. AGS sorely needs to allow keyboard shortcuts instead of right-click cycling.
- Yin is the dark one, Yang is the light one.
- I never got into the "castle" or got Cecil (whoever that may be) to get to work. I normally like a nice red herring but these are agonizing even after you finish the game.
- The dialog was occasionally far too long, so that I found myself skipping it. Some of the dramatic pauses were too long too.
