It's April 2043 and you—as Tex Murphy, the last of the old-style gumshoes—find yourself racing against time in the most dangerous game of your life. What is the truth behind the rumored UFO crash at Roswell, New Mexico? Why did the military suddenly shut down and seal off the Roswell complex? And why the frequent references to the lost Mayan civilization?
⭐ Unrestricted movement. The unique "Virtual World" engine allows you to slip under desks, rifle through drawers, and see the flies tanning in the light fixtures. Without the restrictions of rendered paths, you can explore Tex's three-dimensional world with full freedom of movement.
⭐ The most replayability of any interactive movie to date. Follow one of three narrative paths leading to seven different endings. Are you a hard-nosed but honest P.I. struggling to overcome the forces of greed and corruption? Or a cynical opportunist who may have to "sell out" principles top score the big payoff? Perhaps you'll fall somewhere in between. Your choices could reveal more about yourself than you'd really like to know.
⭐ Two levels of play. The first level offers a complete on-line hint system to help you through the tougher puzzles. The second level—for expert gamers—has no hints available but rewards players with higher bonus points, extra puzzles and locations.
⭐ Hollywood! Enjoy the difference Hollywood cinematography, acting, editing, stuntwork, music, and direction make as the world of Tex Murphy becomes amazingly real. Cinematography and direction by Hollywood editor/director Adrian Carr (Quigley Down Under, Man From Snowy River, Power Rangers). Cast stars Barry Corbin (Northern Exposure, War Games), Tanya Roberts (View To A Kill, Beastmaster), and Kevin McCarthy (Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, Just Cause). Original song by blues musician Richie Havens.
Will Tex and Chelsee finally get together... or is there a new woman in Tex's life? A secret has been buried for 3,000 years. What really happened on July 6, 1947, just outside Roswell, New Mexico? "It was no weather balloon..." This case may be too hot for even Tex to handle. Intriguing puzzles challenge your wits.

Amazing Interface
One of the best games I have ever played... I got it when I was a kid and yet the story still intrigues me. I could play this again and again and never be bored. It STILL gives me the creeps!!

The Pandora Directive is a full-motion video interactive, point and click game. The story revolves around our hero, Tex Murphy, the down and out PI, always between jobs. The opening scene is frightening as a man in black and masked paws through a sleeping woman's possession with her in the room, but oops! she's not sleeping. The scene shifts to The Brew and Stew where Tex is busy alienating his love interest Chelsee Bando. (He has a problem with commitment.) After Chelsee leaves and his friends berate him for his lack of sensitivity, a stranger buys him a drink and asks for his assistance in locating a missing person. From here the plot has lots of twists and turns; serial killer on the loose, government conspiracy (The Truth is Out There), ancient civilizations and trying to get the love/commitment thing going. The story is full of great puzzles of various difficulties. Most of which are fun and not too daunting. You can choose at the beginning to play on Entertainment Mode which has a built in hint system that costs you points to use and affects your final score (for those who are interested in scores) or you can play in Game Player Mode and you're on your own. If you do try to use the hint system in Game Player Mode you are put into the Entertainment Mode. Game Player mode has a few more puzzles in it and they are a little harder. There are seven endings to the game based on the decisions you make; will you give the money back to the orphans or keep it? will you return your rotten landlord's wallet?, etc. The ending of the game is a zinger!! It really made me go WOW! I have played this game at least 10 times and it is IMHO the very best game ever made bar none.

My favourite game, ever
The Pandora Directive: interesting characters, an enthralling story, multiple paths to multiple endings, humour, pathos. Everything I've ever wanted in a game, Pandora Directive delivers. It's only flaws are the flaws of technology: it doesn't look nearly as good as a modern game, and some of the acting is by-god awful. But even taking that into account, this is easily a 4 star game. Play it, play it, play it!

Very exciting!
The acting didn't feel overly cheap, the movie scenes actually kept me interested. The final scenes of the game/movie really gave a sense of accomplishment in having reached the end. The multiple choice timeline made the game replayable. I played "under a killing moon" and "the pandora directive" several times each until the discs died from overuse (the constant disc swapping was the ONLY annoyance).

The grand return
Who would believe that the follow up of Under a killing moon could be better? But it was. Bigger and better. It even got more cd-discs to switch. So happy that gog shows how it is playing without any swapping of discs.
