FANTASTIC WILL BE REPLAYING

I didn't like the writing.
Never would have thought point & click meets music would match but it does! I am by no means a musician, I couldn't tell you what note is what sound, I can't read any sheet music, but this game actually works for me. It's a shame it never got an official sequel since it ends on a kind of cliff-hanger; however the journey is worth it.
Unfortunately there is no "ultimate edition" for Loom because all the different variations (the DOS version, the TurboGrafx version, etc) all lack something that the other has and the soundtrack is not the quality it should be on most releases. There was, and is a great story in this game and it's a real shame no other company has been allowed to work on it since this is a Lucasarts owned property which means Disney owns it, which means they couldn't care less about doing anything with it.
Although seeing what Disney has done to Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Willow perhaps that's probably a blessing.
Quite simply one of the best games of its genre ever made. The world, the story, the magic mechanics, all timeless classics.
The only regret I have is that LucasArts never made a sequel.
Beautiful atmosphere, touching story (maybe just for me), a remarkable game for me despite it's very short gameplay duration. I really wish it was longer. Also, I love the idea where you learn a spell depending on what you're seeing.
Nice nostalgia 👍
First thing's first, the version of Loom on sale here on Steam is not good. Neither is the version sold on "The Polish Site" (like Macbeth is "The Scottish Play"!). If you want to play the best version of this game, it is the EGA 16-colour version, which is easy to find online and run through ScummVM. But you should buy a copy of the game before you do any of that, alright? And why not Steam?
Now, for the game itself... While I've never considered myself to be one of those "hardcore" players of video games who always pick the hardest difficulty or do crazy challenges, I'm am not challenge-averse. Loom on the other hand, is an incredibly easy game - exactly as designed. Loom is a game that is meant to be able to be beaten by anyone and everyone. There is gameplay and puzzling, but it is very much on the light side. With today's "gamer" culture, this isn't going to appeal to everyone - heck, it didn't when the game was released either!
It's also short, with not much replayability. Some of the drafts are randomised in each playthrough, but that only makes a difference on the hardest difficulty, which is actually genuinely hard if you're not especially musically inclined, but not in a way that actually feels beneficial to the game. It's just more fruitless struggling for struggling's sake.
So, if neither challenge or multiple playthroughs are the point of Loom, then what is? Well, it's the story. And the graphics (yes, the 16-colour version's graphics are actually better than VGA's 256). And the music. And, well, everything really! Loom is basically a fairy tale, a delightful adventure meant for all ages (apart from that one scene where Ron Gilbert had no supervision and really let loose with the animation).
I just find Loom to be refreshing - a unique adaptation of the point-and-click adventure style, a charming story, lovely graphics, nice music, and it just all gels really well together!
...I just wish the ending had a more solid conclusion.
One of my favorite games of all time. The world building is exceptional. I love it so much, I want to live inside the game. Used to play this all the time with my brother when it came out on floppy disk. We'd write all the spells inside of the Book of Spells as we uncovered with secrets of the Weavers. Can't recommend this game enough.
