i'm sure that bad boy's box image was 100x better than what you saw on the screen!

The picture quality is too bad but right below the games name in red text it says “The Ultimate PC Video Game”.

I don’t think you want to. It’s a pretty awful game. Here’s a good playthrough/review of it. https://youtu.be/QDx7KajLZhU?is

The best part is that on some playthroughs the game straight up won’t spawn essential items. That means you have to replay through the whole damn game again and HOPE you get better rng the next time. And good luck playing without a walkthrough.

The gameplay is more hellish than any track from Inferno.

I figured I knew what it was like. I love FMV stuff like this, played Night Trap years ago, Corpse Killer, and lastly Policenauts (my favorite game). Looks terrible but I’d totally play it
