  • Assume the roles of five different characters, each in a unique environment

FIVE DAMNED SOULS: Buried deep within the centre of the earth, trapped in the bowels of an insane computer for the past hundred and nine years. Gorrister the suicidal loner, Benny the mutilated brute, Ellen the hysterical phobic, Nimdok the secretive sadist, Ted the cynical paranoid.

ONE CHALLENGE: The adventure plunges you into the tortured and hidden past of the five humans. Delve into their darkest fears. Outwit the Master Computer AM in a game of psychological warfare. Disturbing, compelling. An adventure you won't easily forget !!

Justifiable golden classic.

Unique stpry line. Some puzzels MUST be played in a defined sequence without any indication of that requirement, so it can get maddening. Worth playing

I certainly can't believe this game.

I get it, its a old adventure game. I can't deal with those usually but this game was the exception. Its quite..surprising. I am glad that Ted isn't gay like the OG story and the bad ending for Ellen is just heart breaking. This is just a facinating game from beginning to ending. 35 endings while theres only 3 or 4 archetypical ones they are customized for each character. Man I can't.
