Overall: 10
I'll avoid the obvious gag and not say there's two really outstanding things about Elvira. Even though lets be fair, there was.
The icon systems implementation was years ahead of its time. The game really made me glad to own a disk drive even if the disk swapping was a bit of a bind.
Just about as good as a game of its genre could be on the C64.
10 out of 10 for me.
It's marred only by the murder-inducing four-disk multiload. Give it a go if you can (if you can track it down, it's rare and bloody expensive these days).
apart from the C64 Amiga versions on floppy disk flair released a enhanced CD-ROM version with digitized sound effects for the Commodore 128d
Great graphics, creepy story and a good mix of adventure and RPG.
