Description: In brief: The first mission of Charles Cecil (Father of the Broken Sword), one of the best and most original adventures of the violent 90s.
Controlling the eccentric megalomaniac Robert Foster, wearing a turtleneck suit, the player will have to uncover the secrets of the dystopian world and the secrets of the main character's father. The "Lucasart" mission is a classic of the 90s, performed on the Virtual Theater system, with standard "pointer inventory" controls. But that's not important.
The important thing is that every classic "Lucasartian" mission is a masterpiece, unlike any other classic "Lucasartian" mission. Here, the player will find themselves in an amazing atmosphere of the near future, when corporations still rule the world. Decline and desolation are present in almost every scene: garbage dumped behind trash cans, modern modern art ("simplistic and conceptual garbage," according to the robot Joey), dirt, and an oppressive and all-consuming sense of self-destruction. Civilization and the decline of humanity. This could easily have been a psychological thriller in the spirit of George Orwell, but Charles Cecil and his comrades chose a different, more refined option - a wonderful "black" cyberpunk comedy.
