As for where to find it, I'll just say that if you dig and search around the internet long enough you can find anything.

| Deleted User | Well thank you James very much for your response in this matter.[img]http://justadventure.com/yabb/Smilies/shaking_head.gif [/img] Really I sincerely hope during the past eight years that d0ki wasn't actually waiting with baited breath for your reply, LOL, but was able to find the game desired.
Hmm...
Product Description
You are Klaymen. Klaymen wakes up in a building in the strangely empty world of Neverhood. Initially, he does not know where he is or what he has to do, but as he explores the area, he finds mysterious disks. Each disk contains a fragment of a recording; gradually, the back story is revealed as Klaymen finds more and more disks. It would spoil too much to reveal the exact plot, as finding it out is part of the game. The Neverhood is a point-and-click adventure game, notable for its claymation graphics. It uses a simple interface: you move and interact with the world by clicking on the screen. There is no inventory screen, though Klaymen can find a few items he can pick up. There are few inventory-based puzzles; most of the puzzles involve solving riddles and interacting with the environment. Generally, the game is seen from a 3rd person perspective, but when moving between locales, you see the world through Klaymen's eyes (but you have a limited freedom of movement).

Hmm...wow five stars I see here.
As usual I am always looking for interesting older games that I've missed on my journey. Right now this one seems rather pricey even with the positive reviews noted above should one pursue the link. Have to give it some thought. Be as it may it does sound like another entry that I ought to include on my list of desirable games from the past. :-/

Status : Offline | Actually that is a farily normal price for the mid level strong demand games in good condition, I paid a bit more than that for a good original box of LucasArts Jedi Knight Academy, and the same for several others in my colleciton. I was never a fan of the Neverhood style kind of Claymation..but it is fun to see it again.

Status : Offline | I Paid $40 for it new when it came out and consider anything less than that now to be a steal. Great game.
