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.

A game far ahead of its time
Okay, it's a terrible pun for a game that takes place far in the future, but it is absolutely true. The Pandora Directive is still one of my favorite games. I played it when it originally came out, and then played it again, and then again...Based on your choices, you could take three different paths and view one of seven possible endings, and I wanted to see every one. It is the first game that I have played where your choices make a real difference in what happens. They simply don't make games like this anymore. It's a full adventure, in cinematic format, which you get to control. The overall game is an adventure with puzzles dispersed throughout. You can choose from two gaming modes. One mode (Game Player Mode) offers the possibility to accumulate more points, thus allowing you to have access to more in the game. Or, if you prefer to concentrate more on the story line and don't like all of the puzzles, you can choose Entertainment mode. In Entertainment mode, you have the option to bypass certain puzzles and concentrate more on the adventure aspect (sacrificing your ability to gain as many points). All in all, this game is fantastic. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes a good adventure, and I'm very excited to see that I can get it once again through good old games.

Pandora Directive is just as good as I remember it. Can't wait to hear more about Project Fedora.
