Borrowed Time

Humourous, inventive, challenging, beautifully presented, evocative atmosphere and a superior parser. Activision released a game worthy of Infocom with this minor classic.
If you enjoy well made text/graphic adventures then you really need to play this.

I was always attracted by the film-noiresque screenshots of this one. I wish I had more time, so I could play all these interesting looking games... Maybe in my next life... And by my fifth life, I may even make it to the games of the 1990s...

I first played this game with it was re-released a few years later with the title "Time to Die. " It was one of my first adventure games and a lot of fun. I never played many other text/graphic hybrids but this one was a lot of fun.

Great graphic adventure, maybye the first I've ever play.
Badly I never finished, it was too hard (or I was too young maybye)

A very good adventure. Nice graphics and good overall. The atmosphere is great. Fantastic game.

I wrecked my brain when I was young over this one and couldn't crack it. Then later I downloaded it from the internet and couldn't resist finding the key somewhere too. So I finished it and loved it, but it wasn't fair play...

Years later I returned to this game and finally finished it. This and tass times and tone town were two very original text/graphic/adventure games. The animations added a bit of variety to the game, and you felt as if you could die at any moment (and usually did).

Ah, one of my favourite text adventures ever! Has a simple point/click itnerface if you want to use it. If you can survive the game's beginning (took me quite a few tries), you have X amount of time to gather up clues to move from one stage of the game to another, so it is a bit hard. I never fully finished it, but I got pretty close.
