Judith looks like an old DOS adventure game, and it’s only a “game” in the sense that it’s somewhat interactive. The visuals aren’t going to blow you away. The story isn’t literature. But there’s something compelling in the overall package that makes this a worthwhile experience.

Perhaps best of all is the fact that Judith is available for just about every computer under the sun, so operating system is no excuse.
