  > Dyanty appears to be very well written, and is clearly aimed towards the
  > 'L-Plated Adventurer' - there are several encouraging messages near the
  > start along the lines of "You're doing fine, keep it up." In fact, the game
  > is very easy to play, with the exception of some annoying synonym omissions,
  > and progresses at a pleasurable pace. Nothing that I have found so far would
  > hold most people up for very long (I've reached 350 points out of 440).
  > There are only 47 locations, but the location text is very well written and
  > mentions all the available exits and is, for the most part, atmospheric -
  > something that is often lost in sci-fi games. (Grimwold)

  > I've got as far to the end as I believe is possible with my version as I
  > think it is fatally bugged. [...] Putting this bug aside I see why the game
  > got an HM (Honorable Mention) in the 1992 AGT competition, from what I've
  > seen of the other HMs, it's the best yet. If it is fatally bugged though
  > (maybe I'm being completely stupid), I just can't see why the judges didn't
  > notice it. (James Judge)
