Gnome Ranger II: Ingrid's Back is a text adventure game by Level 9, released in 1988.[1] It is the sequel to Gnome Ranger.[1] The game has limited graphics on some platforms. A short novella by Peter McBride is included ("The 2nd Gnettlefield Journal") explaining the background to the story and providing hints for play.

Plot

[edit]

Having just returned from her "holiday" in the wilderness, the gnome Ingrid Bottomlow must save her home village of Little Moaning from destruction by a greedy property developer, Jasper Quickbuck. To do this she must get the various uncooperative inhabitants of the village to sign her petition.

Gameplay

[edit]

Gameplay is similar to Gnome Ranger. The player must explore Ingrid's village while collecting signatures for her petition by interacting with various non-player characters.[citation needed]

Reception

[edit]

Computer and Video Games gave Ingrid's Back a very favorable review, with reviewer Keith Campbell calling it "the most enjoyable Level 9 adventure [he had] played to date" and praising its humor and difficulty curve.[3]
