I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream

This happened to my buddy eric

Keine Rezension, sondern eher ne Frage. Ich habe das Spiel gleich zweimal und kann es durch die damalige Zensur nicht komplett auf Deutsch spielen. Wie ist es mit dieser Version?

A point and click adventure game from a era that had the best of the breed chugging away on 486dx88's, I spent hours tweaking the config.sys to get it to run, and an hour later I was a couple blocks away buying weed to bring my thoughts close to the disturbing wavelength that permeates this game. Some scenes are quite hard, I got clues from posts on a dial up BBS (DAWN PATROL:the best bbs, first wolfenstein download, first online monopoly tourney for money, first munch with 20+ participants), this saved several breakable objects. The ending(s) are satisfying, well, mostly, and it is a good way to spend a day eating pizza pops, consuming licit and illicit psychoactives (you dont stand a chance otherwise) and finally finishing at 3 am, hope the husband/wife doesnt wake up when you crawl in to bed. The dreams will fade, mostly...

It's a bizarre little game that is definitely worth playing once if you're a fan of games that are just different. I do hate the point and click adventure format though, and I am pretty much glad it's not in vogue any more. I didn't precisely have fun playing it, but I applaud the thought. That really is the whole thing here, because the short story is (despite the internet's claims otherwise) not one of Ellison's best works. But it's the thought that's so alluring, and the character of AM who is so full of unbridled, inorganic hate; expressed in sadism and dead laughter. Interesting thoughts and feelings evoked..... boring and kind of annoying game to play.

but I liked it.
