Love the very Snorbery sense of humor! Do not love the damn arena and not having enough ammo but TBF, that's a troll! I like the bouncy castle a lot and I like the stupid wizard! Really nice PS art boards at the end, too! Fun stuff and while it's kinda longish, it's not TOO long either. Another fun La Vie!

I was able to beat sections of this game through rampant use of ?health, ?ammo, ?-dark, and ?zap, but kept getting softlocked by bad save timing in rooms that seemed to want to kill me via dialogue choices. I even opened up YouTube to try and solve part of this game—what ZZT game these days doesn't just load up YouTube itself? As an Initiate to the La Vie series, part V might not be the place to start, but I enjoyed the colourful characters and intricate board design, a lot of light WEAVEry takes the classic castle vibes to bright new heights.

STUPID: Me, I guess! I couldn't figure out how to get gems, ammo, or torches—well trolled.

DSTC: Wasn't prepared for the amount of save/restore or desperate cheat entry

FUNNY: Yes

ANIMALS: ♤

In the name of the moon, I think this is pretty swell.
