It's pretty good, works well, and is well worth playing but I think your rating is a bit OTT! ;) Considering the high standards in many FMs I'd give it a well-deserved 85 out of 100. To put that in perspective, I reckon the best FMs I've played are Calendra's Legacy at maybe 95 out of 100 for EACH of the first two missions, and A Keeper of the Prophecies, Part 1, Hallucinations at maybe 93. Hard to compare roses and tulips as CL1 is probably the most beautiful graphically whereas Hallucinations I consider the best for spoken dramatic scenes and voice acting and at least very close with CL2 in respect of story unfolding within the mission (rather than an intro text file) Anyway, the other main reason I'm posting is to ask, did you or anyone, complete this on expert? If so, any tips as to loot? I had well over the required 1000 but could only find 100 out of 200 gems. It might be a single item I guess. Do you recall any particularly hard to spot gem? -- Brian [email brian AT fidcal.com]
