Just kidding... no more patch arguments, but a review (short) of the game. Moebius is a combination adventure/arcade game. It is set in an oriental phantasy world that crosses all four planes of existence. The idea is to quest through each plane and finally free the 'orb of celestial harmony'. The graphics are pseudo-3D and battles are flat but real time karate action. The adventure is well-done and fairly complex. It involves magic and prayer along with kill everything that moves play. Worth the $28 that MacConnection charges for it... It is copy protected, though the protection doesn't work on '020, '030 based machines. The copy protection is poorly written and easily removed by the patch previously mentioned (and so feverishly discussed). There is a color version available, though it is disappointing.
