Trivia / Zork Nemesis

• Cowboy BeBop at His Computer: One Entertainment Weekly review of the game claims that the Featureless Protagonist is "an unnamed alchemist" in search of "four missing persons". The protagonist is actually a pilgrim heroine in search of four alchemists.
• Feelies: True to Zork tradition, the game came with a handful of physical supplements, including a map showing where the Forbidden Lands were physically located and Bivotar's journal which basically explained the entire game's backstory.
• Follow the Leader: This game was one of many Myst clones of the day, and its influence is extremely blatant. Outside of the included journal, you largely begin the game off in a blank slate and only discover the backstory through in game writings, the writings themselves are extremely numerous and lengthy, the game uses first person pre-rendered slides (though, in its defense, so did its direct predecessor which preceded Myst), your inventory plays an extremely minute role in the experience, there are few characters to interact with, the game opts for a generally quiet and gag-free atmosphere, and it even follows the same formula of having a main hub area with four completely disconnected locations to explore.
• Multi-Disc Work: The game originally shipped on three CDs.
