I never heard of Asylum but now I wonder if it is a >more difficult game then Wiz 4. I don't think I played it for more than a half-hour, so I'm not sure if my experience is indicative.

Asylum is basically a text adventure game with graphics, so it's all about figuring what you need to type rather than hoping the random number generator will go your way.
