Interesting interview to an interesting game. I recommend checking out the game if you are fine with seeing the idea of something great, but not the execution. Especially the later part of the game fell flat as you can easily see that they didn't have enough time to develop a proper ending. But the first half? Really atmospheric and fun to play!

There seemed to be a lot of games like that back then, Anachronox is another that comes to mind that was really well thought out and had so much going for it but was released in a pretty sorry state.
