It had been a while since your editor, Zoperman, despite having known the genre since the 80s, had enjoyed this genre of games. It has happened recently, after playing the adventure El Archipielago, and on seeing that younger people were also interested in it, that the bug has bitten him again.
Looking into it a bit, we see that things are moving, and in this year 2010, the OrcosComp begins at the hands of some members of the CAAD, the Spanish adventure community that has accompanied us since the days of the Spectrum.
