Another game from my childhood I only read about, but never played.
Always thought it’s an adventure, due to isometric perspective and walkthrough mentioning some fights. There are fights, but even if you get killed, you just thrown back a bit.
So this is really a point’n’click with an isometric perspective.
Something I wouldn’t have noticed as a kid, because most of the games I played then were rips: the voice acting is truly horrible. I ended up just turning sound off.
As far as story goes, our character wakes up after a car crash in a gothic asylum.
He’s then quickly teleported to village full of deformed children. Turns out a meteorite landed there some time ago, and gave conscience to some kind of a plant life, which calls herself Mother. Mother killed all the adults, and began transforming the kids into plants. We burn the monster using a generator. Very Tommyknockers.
As most point’and’click games go, there’s some degree of pixel hunting. I was pretty smug with myself for the first hour or so, until I had to find a stone, which was undistinguishable from the background.
