Have you ever wondered
what it would be like to be a Nazi doctor performing unethical operations
on unwilling patients? I hope not, but this is a game that will force
you into that uncomfortable position.
Based on a Harlan Ellison
short story of the same name, I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream
is one of the ten most-reprinted stories in the English language.
You must assume the roles of five very different characters as you
are plunged into their tortured and hidden pasts. Five souls who are
trapped in the depths of an insane computer known as AM–as in I AM.
A deranged AM has carried out the Prime Directive and started the
Final War. These last five damned souls alive have been imprisoned
in AM’s underground domain for 109 years. Now they must outwit their
captor in one last attempt to escape. But even if they do escape,
the Earth was destroyed in the Final War. Or is that merely another
one of AM’s lies?
Featuring adult-oriented
themes and provocative psychological plotlines, I Have No
Mouth and I Must Scream is not for those timid few who demand
a positive conclusion to their gaming experience. There is no winning
in Mouth, only ways to lose either heroically, at
the peak of one’s humanity, or ignominiously–in a selfish, cowardly
frightened manner. A must-play for the adventure gamer who demands
intellectual confrontation.
JA
reviewer Ray Ivey described I Have No Mouth and I Must
Scream “as dark, grim, perhaps even sick.”
