Thanks, Ronald! This is a really pretty game - great picture and fun to play, and it also refreshed my memory of The Tempest. I did not know thios Hogarth painting - not quite how I have ever pictured Ariel, or Ferdinand for that matter!

Shakespeare was the Master of Farces and Asides. The audience was in on the ruse, but the actors were in the Land of Nod.

Nicely done.
But in the words of one of my former employees regarding the movie version of 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' :
"This turns Shakespeare into a farce!"

You are correct! It should be the city to come back to.......but in the time of the Tempest there was so much water and waves that Sorrento seemed to be an island in the Bay of Naples!!!
