>In <2260@saturn.ucsc.edu> alibaba@ucscb.UCSC.EDU (A. M. Rosenberg) categorizes >The Fool's Errand as one of those >silly puzzle games . I classify Fool's Errand as the best computer game for the Mac, or any other computer I've ever played. Of course it's not an arcade game, but it's far from silly -- it's challenging and *addictive*. Its use of the Mac as a vehicle for a sort of mega-puzzle is compelling. Perhaps Mr. Rosenberg would be better served by buying a Nintendo game system than by trying to shoehorn the Mac into a video arcade. Walter Hunt
