I wrote a little a bit about the wonderful games that Michael Berlyn made over the years.

One review that I did not mention in the article, because it is so in-jokey, was this when we were doing Reviews From Trotting Krips. It was Ben reviewing Infidel in the style of me. I read it again last night and laughed and laughed. It does sound like something I would have written at the time. I can't believe it's been 7 years since the last RFTK.

RFTK really was one of the best IF review sites ever.
Also, Berlyn really is an awesome guy. Between all of the time he spent on the ifMUD and having seen his interviews, I feel as if I've hung out with the guy. I touched base with him again just in the last couple years since I thought a mobile game he had released with Muffy sounded a bit like an old IF idea he had, and it was just really nice to catch up again.
Playing through his "Cyborg" game has always been on my IF bucket list.
