Ghost Town

Ghost Town is set in a deserted American town, abandoned after the California Gold Rush. It is not as easy to play as most other adventure games, but is quite a challenge for anyone who likes long adventure games.

Your aim is to find old Jake Clampett's gold mine and return to the Town Square with the gold. But beware the sweltering heat of the desert, and steer clear of the Sheriff's Office if possible, for if you carelessly wander into one of the cells, the door will slam shut and you will be trapped. The only major fault of the game is that it has limited graphics, so consequently it will only appeal to the more serious games player.

Ghost Town is not as much fun or as exciting as most other adventure games, but it is reasonably good value for money.
