Released back in 1995, this classic Lucasarts graphic adventure made a welcome change to Sierra games which usually seemed to cast you as a politically correct pixie poncing about in a technicolour jump suit…

Alone in the Dark undoubtedly stands out as being one of the most important and influential PC games of the past 20 years.

When I first played through Under a Killing Moon back in 1994 I realized one thing; here finally was a game worthy of the oft used (but rarely deserved) catchphrase ‘interactive movie.’

The name Phantasmagoria brings two things immediately to mind; a long overdue, extravagantly produced PC adventure game from Sierra and a nasty bout of overblown, relatively unjustified controversy.
