First off, I would like to say that the sense of humor that made the books so great is perfectly preserved in this game. I think that with text adventures, there is only three factors: Story, puzzles, and fun. Since it is based on the Hitchkiker's guide to the Galaxy, the story is hands down fantastic. The puzzles are probably the best in any text game ever. I don't want to spoil anything for you, but good luck on the babelfish puzzle! And, lastly, There is fun.

This is the most fun you will ever have with an adventure game. The game's humor will keep you laughing and laughing for hours on end.
This kind of humor will make any
part of the game fun. Even when you die you'll be laughing as the game makes a joke at your expense, and believe me when I say that you WILL die. Don't even try to avoid dying, in fact, the game will actually have you looking for more ways to die just so you can hear another funny joke at your expense. You will be laughing every step of the way at the various wise cracks, puns, insults, and other humorous tomfoolery. If you want to laugh, for the love of god start playing this game just right now!
Please, don't be drawn away from the fact that it is a text based game with no graphics. If you are willing, you will find that the game is a big pot of great fun! But if the lack of graphics is really bothering you, then you can find a graphical version on the Hitchhiker's Guide website. Just look it up on google, it's easy to find it.
