Subject: Disappointing review

After visiting Just Adventure for numerous years and reading your reviews, I have never been as disappointed in you as I was with your Road to India review. Although I generally do not agree with many of the reviews in Just Adventure, I do find them informative and somewhat helpful.

Having just started playing Road to India, I decided to take a break and hop online to see how you guys rated it. What left me shocked and disappointed was the line, "The student soon receives a "Dear Sahib" letter from his fiancee and, unaware that she is now involved with a cult, takes to the friendly skies to confront his true love face-to-face." Great! She's involved with the cult??? I knew from the box that she was kidnapped by them, but didn't think she was a part of them. Grrrr.....

BTW, on a similar vein, maybe you guys should throw in some tidbits about the game boxes in your reviews as well. Technically, the box stating that "she gets kidnapped by Kali worshippers bent on human sacrifice" kind of spoils some of the mystery as well. I always get a kick out of games that play crashing symbols and play up the revelation of some great mystery as though you should be shocked when you knew about it all along because it said so on the box.

Oh well, just my 2 cents. Take care and keep up the great work!
