Bought it very, very cheap, but still I did bought it, and it was very embarassing. Played it for about 5 minutes.
:-[ :-[ Oh God ! Erotica Island! :-[ :-[
I bought it with my ex-girlfriend because she thought it looked vaguely amusing, and I thought it might initiate her into the world of AGs :-[
We started playing on a Saturday tea-time(about 5.30), and had finished the game by 9.00 pm :-[
On the plus side we did get a couple of laughs from it but I really cant remember if they were due to humour in the game or just the realisation we had spent £30 :-[ :-[ :-[ on an atrocious waste of time!!
We aren't together anymore :'(
I just hope it haad nothing to do with the fact that I introduced her to possibly one of the worst gaming experiences ever!!!
Bow down before the one you serve&&You're going to get what you deserve !

I still haven't found a machine it'd run on either. Then again I didn't pay for the game so I didn't look that hard
Noctropolis. It's just bizarre.
Noctropolis is cool! I guess it's an "underdog" game, too weird for many (most?) people.
I forgot my sig.

| Deleted User | 11h,
my computer was the lowest thing capable of running the game...black and white, very very slow motion and videos in a small window, with popping and crackling sound...wow

Noctropolis is a gem! It might be a little strange but, hey, that makes it more interesting. Seriously, it's one of the best "heroes" stories ever.

That's about as far as I got in the game too.

Status : Offline | I enjoyed playing Noctropolis, I just found some of the puzzles annoying. To be honest, I never completed it. I've lost the CD now (perhaps I can download it somewhere?)
I never managed to get into the observatory, or something. Oh well!

I have that game! I bought it on special in the 5-game-adventure-pack sale bin when I got my first computer. I remember having problems with it, but I thought it was just because I was new and stupid!!!!

It must be Realms Of The Haunting!
I have played it for a couple of days, but now Its time to uninstall it and play a real adv game.
The box says "...more than 155 inv items..."
well 60 % of them are bullets for your weapons!
I am sorry but but from now on I will stick to pure adv games only. You could say I took a shot with ROTH and blew it. >
FOR THE MOMENT I AM PLAYING ON MY Win 7&&&&Recently Played&& ark Fall Lost Souls,Outcry,SH vs A Lupin,Tales of Monkey Island,Still Life 2,Sinking Island,Pandora Directive (RP),The Lost Crown

Status : Offline | Nooooooo but ROTH is a great game! Alright, it's not a pure adventure so, if that was what you were looking for, forget about it. If you liked the interface and graphics, try Normality, also from Gremlin - it's an excellent, highly underrated adventure.
BTW never ever trust the box

Status : Online | "9", and probably "harvester" too... Why oh why was I expecting to buy some decent adventure games back then...
On the other hand, I hadn't an internetconnection back then, didn't read game-magazines and judged games by their boxes...

Actually I did not buy the game because of the comment on the box. And no, I was not looking for a "pure" adv game. I read a lot of positive rewievs and gave it a shot. But for me its not, so to speak.

I have that game too. I haven't played it, but I thought it was adventure because it had the word "Haunting" in the title! How foolish am I! Now I know not to hurry to play that one!

Err....umm.....uhh.....I have that game too (and never played it). It makes me feel so good that I have all these games that are in most people's "Hall of Lame"!

Too bad I threw the box away... (I will never commit such a crime again...)
