Man. I played the demo on the Amiga but never heard anything else about the game. I assumed it had died along with lots of promising upcoming games (this being around the time Commodore ate itself and lots of developers jumped ship) and thought no more of it.

Fast forward several years until I heard from a (usually) reliable source that it had been released on the Amiga after all, and was in fact one of the best adventure games ever. I 'acquired' it and played it through WinUAE, and... er, yeah. Enjoyed it, but it's not exactly up there. :~

Don't see how "it's like a B-movie!" can be a valid complaint, though. That's like complaining that Borat is naive...

But man, I'm glad I was spared the voices. I started up the ScummVM edition once and nearly torched my computer. They're that bad.
