About This Game Snail Trek - Chapter 1: Intershellar is the first in a series of "20 minute adventures" where you take on the role of a crew of snails on a journey to a new home world.In the style of the early Sierra Online adventure games, Snail Trek has colorful EGA-ish graphics and a text parser interface. Relive the nostalgia in these bite-sized adventures - but without all the pain. Autosaves, a text parser with auto-suggest, and puzzles with no dead ends, all combine to bring this old genre into the modern era.In Chapter 1, you arrive at the lettuce-covered (or so you hope) planet. But something is amiss. Your ship has been damaged and you may not be able to land at all! Meanwhile, your home world is dying, and your entire civilization is waiting for your report on this new planet. Is it really a lettuce-covered paradise?You can find chapter 2 here.Key Features Autosaves - no need to save every few minutes (though you still can if you want). A text parser with both auto-suggest and auto-correct - fat finger your way to puzzle glory (but you can turn them off if you want to suffer more greatly). A text parser that understands what objects are in front of you, so you can be lazy and just type things like 'get' or 'look'. CRT emulation mode that gives those pixels an ever-so-slightly fuzzy look. A stereophonic score. Cute snails. Deaths (but hey, autosaves). No dead ends! Puzzle your way around with impunity! Widescreen aspect ratio, since monitors are more rectangular now. 7aa9394dea Title: Snail Trek - Chapter 1: IntershellarGenre: Adventure, IndieDeveloper:Phil FortierPublisher:Phil FortierFranchise:Snail TrekRelease Date: 30 Nov, 2017 Free Download Snail Trek - Chapter 1: Intershellar .exe A fun, quick 20 minute adventure in the vein of the old Sierra typing games. Well worth the asking price!. Very enjoyable start to a classic style point and click.. except it's not.. you don't even need to use the mouse at all. Instead using the arrow keys to move your snail around, you type your commands into the pop-up text box and it works really well with auto-correct and suggested words as you type. It was also quite generous early on with hints and tips, which is (I'm assuming) only for the first chapter, because the chapter itself is quite short. The logic works for the most part, except I got my first accidental death because it was oddly specific about what to do with one particular item and it was clear what I wanted to do, but none of the text I typed put the frigan watering can in the place I knew it needed to go.Played through in about half an hour - which was just enough to really get into it and look into the second chapter. It has the beginnings of some cute humour, though I feel deeply bad for the ship's captain and what I did to her :/ I finished it with one point off the maximum attainable which I was quite happy about, but annoyed because I'm pretty sure that final point was something that I did before an accidental space-walk death and then didn't bother to do again because movement was quite slow and I just wanted to progress. Ah well.. I'll play through it again at some point for the anal achievement need.Check it out if you like old style adventure games (Hugo's House of Horror's just popped into my head for some reason.. probably because of the similar controls/typing interface).. Most enjoyable adventure series. Excellent game.The best game starring spacefaring snails I've played in 2017.. This four-part game perfectly blends text-based adventure with the visuals of point-and-click, resulting in very intuitive gameplay (and no pixel hunting).It's a little on the short side, with around 3 hours of gameplay for all four parts combined (5 hours if you want all the achievements).My only complaint is that I can't find any more games quite like this, so hopefully the developer will produce more.. I never played parser games back in the day so I went in this without nostalgia goggles. Despite this, Snail Trek won me over with it's charm and how painless the parser system was. I've heard a lot of bad things about old text adventures and this game thankfully avoids them. It's short but that time is enjoyable not frustrating.. Bit too easy, and playful. Would have expected more serious game, but this'll do. With just 2 buckazoids you'll have a fun evening helping snails get a new homeworld!
