Though I have to ask - It's been quite some time since this game was released, hasn't it? I'm not saying it's been years, but several good months. Why only now, if I may ask?

Status : Offline | That is a very sophomorish attempt at a review. There are much better reviewers on the JAV list and I would rather read any of them than this trivial poorly written and unappealing piece. It has a fake "jolly" and slangy approach especially in the opening portion that really turned me off and I had to force myself to keep reading. A serious and quality game such as Lost Horizons deserves a much more skillful and experienced writer who knows the genre and the history of the theme.
That is an excellent game by the way, but I got the feeling after reading this "review" that it is just another point and click with some nice features but nothing really to get excited about but then it gets a high grade.
Overall the most offensive part of the this piece and this approach and this author's attitude is that it take a superior and supercilious viewpoint that demeans the game while pretending to describe it in authoritative detail. I am not at all impressed and hope that this will be the last contribution from this author for now. We can and should do much better.
We have some excellent reviewers here..i would suggest letting some of them review this excellent game that has a lot of fine features and which deserves an in depth and quality treatment.
JAV is the best adventure game forum and site on the net and I care a lot about the high standard that has been maintained here for many years..and hope to see it continue.

You sir are no more qualified from "reviewing the reviewer" based on your negative personal comments concerning this reviewer in a previous removed thread than I am being your President. No Comment would have been much more appropriate and the right thing to do since this reviewer cannot reply to your slurs. I do it all the time.
By the way, I thought the review was well written and very accurate. Gotta go play some golf........
