After his week at Blizzard's main office, Meretzky returned to Massachusetts and finished the job remotely. His time on "Warcraft Adventures" ultimately totaled around two weeks. Soon after his visit, Wooley reported that Blizzard had enjoyed its work with him and might hire him again. Roper later echoed this praise for Meretzky's contributions, which he said left the game with "a much, much stronger series of puzzles that tied in much better to the storyline." Meretzky also signed Roper's copy of "Superhero League of Hoboken" during the period. In 2016, Meretzky stated that even the planned revisions to "Warcraft Adventures" would have resulted in an average adventure game. However, he enjoyed the title's story and voice acting, and its core idea of rendering the "Warcraft" universe in finer and more intimate detail. Despite Meretzky's redesign, Blizzard did not initially project a delay for the game, which remained set for a summer 1998 launch.
