Product Description

Torin's Passage is a graphic adventure game developed and released by Sierra On-Line, designed by Al Lowe. The game holds the distinction of being a family friendly game by Lowe, designer of the adult-oriented Leisure Suit Larry series of games. The player interacts with Torin and the in-game environments using a point-and-click interface. Placing the cursor over certain "hot spots" in the environment allows him to move around, examine things and pick up items. There is also an inventory system used to access the items Torin collects during the course of the game. The player can switch to Boogle as well, although he is mainly used to morph into various items. The items he can morph into replace the items in Torin's inventory. Any item can be viewed as a 3-D model by using the item viewer. The game has a variety of puzzles, from puzzles involving item collection to sliding puzzles. Points are given after solving puzzles. A hint system is included as an in-game feature, and the player can ask for hints after certain time intervals, at the cost of game points. The specific time interval can be set as an in-game option. The hint system can also be turned off entirely.[1]

Customer Reviews

One of the best of Sierra PC games truly a "hoot"
I have had this game almost since it came out and still enjoy the play. Torin's Passage is in the same genre as
Sierra's Kings Quest, etc. The story line is good but the best is Torin's sidekick a goofy cat-like creature and he is so fun to squash. The graphics are excellent considering when it was made as it compares equally with what is offered in today's games. Our whole family has played and enjoyed the game. The puzzle's keep with the story line and are neither too easy or hard. It does offer hints within the game. If you can get this game, I hope you enjoy it as much as my family has.
