Cauldron II is cool. It is a well thought out and polished game, and a great deal of care and attention has obviously gone into it. The title sequence is neat, as is the title screen music (even though it is quite short), and the whole thing creates a film-like atmosphere. The game itself is great fun to play, although it is very hard, and it will take a long time to solve. Cosmetically, Cauldron II is beautiful. It contains some superb background graphics and the sprites are delightfully defined and animated. I especially like the way the pumpkin bounds about the place with a manic grin spread across its 'face'. Cauldron II looks good, sounds good, and plays even better. Miss it and you'll regret it.
