I was wondering if anybody ever played this old game. It's an old strategy game. The artist H.R. Giger did all the artwork, I believe. From what I can remember, it was really fun and I'd love to get my hands on it again. (specially since H.R. Giger has awsome artwork) Anybody have it or know where I can get it? What did you think of it?

BTW, I am an avid console gamer. I originated on console gaming, which led me to pc gaming, and now back to console gaming (with the next gen systems like Dreamcast). I remember seeing this game in ad's for SegaCD but it never saw the light of day (I believe) or was ported too crappy to justify a purchase. Either way, H.R Giger is a kickass writer and a very twisted one at that. Check that link. It's the ONLY one at ebay right now, and is shrinkwrapped to boot along with being cheap! Better snatch that sucker up quickly ;)

FYI, it is the shrinkwrapped PC version.


Good luck with it, and take care
Even that, I do not know...

Thanks <b><i>MasterChen</i></b>. I just got done bidding on it. Hopefully I'll be able to snag it for under $10 shipped. Although, I'm at school right now and won't be able to check up on it :(

Again, thanks a lot!

I had that and it was mucho fun. Bad thing is it always crashed on me so I could never finish it. I might have gotten halfway through it but what all I did play was fun.
I just found it as I was typing this and if you want it then it's yours. Just email me your adress. ;)

Another similar game that was far more fun was Noctropolis, Now I really loved that game and I wish they'd make a sequel. The original Gabrial Knight is along those same lines too.

And then there is Phantasmagoria and Ripper, I love games like that and wish they still made some like those.
