==========================================================
Apparently I'm too old, or too young for this game, depending on how you look at it. Too old in sense that I don't have patience anymore for challenging puzzles, and there's puzzles on every step in this game and I get stuck a lot. Too young in sense that I missed out on this type of games in the 90s (only started playing any games in 1998 on pc).

So Alundra is a clone of Zelda then. Good to know, cos it means that I haven't really missed out on anything cos I'm not interested in this type of gameplay. Getting stuck a lot in games is a big NO, but unfortunately that isn't the only downside of this game - it has quite clunky controls, annoying enemies, high difficulty.. Don't know if I will keep playing this game, I JUST DON'T KNOW.
