I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream
Great game, although it does suffer from some of the same obtuse puzzle solutions that plagued other adventure games of the time. I went through it with a guide, and I still have no idea why I did some of the things in the order that I did in order to get the "best" ending.Anyone who buys the game on Steam or GOG will get the short story as a downloadable bonus, so that's pretty cool.EDIT: This passage suggests that Harlan's original script for the famous Star Trek episode is somehow lost to the annals of history:> As good as the produced version of the episode is, Ellison insisted until his death that the undoctored script he first submitted was far, far better — and it must be acknowledged that at least some of the people who worked on Star Trek agreed with him. In a contemporaneous memo, producer Bob Justman lamented that, following several rounds of editing and rewriting, “there is hardly anything left of the beauty and mystery that was inherent in the screenplay as Harlan originally wrote it.”It's not. It has long been published and available for people to read:https://www.amazon.com/Harlan-Ellisons-City-Edge-Forever/dp/...It was even adapted into a graphic novel that followed the original screenplay:https://www.amazon.com/Star-Trek-City-Edge-Forever/dp/163140...Having read both, and watched the episode, I can confidently say that the original script was miles better than what we got.
