Is it still worth playing?

ICOM Simulations' 1986 point and click adventure for the Macintosh, part of the MacVenture series. It was later ported to several systems. You search a haunted mansion for a missing sibling, which means gaining access to the locked parts of the estate. The house has two floors and a tower, mostly in early 20th century style, and three buildings in the backyard: an observatory, a greenhouse and a chapel that leads into a cemetery maze. Magical creatures such as apparitions, hellhounds and zombies guard several places. There is a time limit, counted in moves such as talking to a character, entering a room, observing an object or using an item, and if you run out the mansion's evil spell takes control. There is still a lot to find in a house full of hidden rooms and guarded corners.
