Description
Bob is a working-class angel ordered by God himself to go and clean up the putrid, disgusting, sleazy, and infested world of the future. He has been given the power of possesion so that he can sneak up on any person, animal or genetically engineered being and leap right into their souls!

With your help, Bob can then use their bodies, their weapons, or even their bare hands to strangle, cripple, impale, and incinerate the cities of sinners sent to stop you from finding Satan himself. Hiding in their souls, Bob can use these sinners' bodies against their will as armor (to take pain for him), or he can use them for camouflage (to hide inside them) and pretend to be just another twisted citizen in the Messiah world...

The rules are up to you - enjoy the freedom.
  • Possess anyone you want and make them do your bidding
  • A grim Cyberpunk atmosphere with a touch of the divine
  • Save humanity from the Devil using your brains and your enemies’ brawn

The Messiah has been with us for a while

Used gog.com service for the first time with this game and the service was great, downloads were at a fast speed, game installed easy enough onto Vista 64-bit and it runs as advertised. Game has some fantastically original idea's and you can see the potential with it, if you can get past the flaws of the game regarding bugs and visuals this is a 4.5 star game. Being able to posses people and then commit suicide is fun. Technical issues: I found that patch 0.2 would not install after the installation. The resolutions to choose from on the menu's do not match my screen dimensions. The graphics appear glitchy, as in the people and scenery seem to be moving/jerking. Voice audio is difficult to hear. It is more of a puzzle game than action, action is too simple and no combat tactics needed. However stealth tactics and puzzle solving is required. This game would be amazing on a new stable engine, I will definately finish this game as long it can run all the way through.

The game that killed Shiny.

I remember when this crusty fart of a game got all hyped by Mr. "I programmed Aladdin all by myself" David Perry, and the ensuing religious reaction by the gaming press, and all that hoopla. I think Dave and co. were too busy negotiating the sale of the Earthworm Jim to really make a game, so what history has is a mess of a product that was festering in the alpha stages, then rotting in the beta, and released just to end the misery. Apparently, the programming team was having a real hard time getting pre-2001 hardware to do the cool stuff they wanted, so development went the way of Duke Nukem Forever, except Shiny caved in four years down poo hill and just said, "F--- it."
