The first adventure game I loved
I played this on Mac in 1996 and it got me into adventure. It made me go back and play a lot of older games. None of them could recapture the feeling this game gave me however, except maybe Sanitarium, with its very uneasy, uncomfortable atmosphere. Playing as the cockroach there are thousands of seemingly insignificant ways to die! And that is one of this game's greatest strengths - it makes you FEEL like the cockroach.
And while the FMV acting is really dodgy, the gameplay is perfect, and it's own motivation. This is a game with loads of soul.
I never managed to get a hold of this game again as the PC port was more rare than the original Mac release, and when I found it I couldn't get it to work. So I'm buying this again from GOG!
