A tense, richly written detective mystery steeped in gothic atmosphere and supernatural dread, with thoughtful puzzle-solving and pixelated exploration.

What players say

Players love the story, voice acting from Tim Curry and Mark Hamill, and the voodoo mystery. However, they warn of frustrating Sierra-style puzzles that often require walkthroughs, and outdated pixel hunting. The port has audio popping and some users need DOSBox config tweaks.
