Review Roundup: The Eleusinian Miseries

The Eleusinian Miseries is is a parser-based work by Mike Russo.

This is a game that I beta-tested, so I'm not going to review it. 

Instead, you should listen to these people of unusual taste and discernment

From Herr M:

"Really solid debut that plays like a mix of Asterix, Monty Python and Terry Pratchett"

From Lynda Clark

"A funny, nicely written romp through (I think) Ancient Greece with a really well made hint system that offers information nice and gradually to give you a nudge in the right direction without spoiling things."

From Anssi 

Based on what I was able to play, it was a hilarious, fun experience, and definitely worth checking out for the language used. 

From Walter Sandsquish

"Eleusinian Miseries" is a funny, engaging, well-structured game, with only a few implementation problems.

From Radioactive Crow:

"While many of the puzzles were very enjoyable, it is really the humor that makes this game great. Don't forgot to stop and read the prose in between completing tasks as there are more than just funny lines, but hilarious whole scenes. It is unusual to me to see humor mixed into a parser game this well and at this level."
