I have always been interested in this game and I remember almost buying it when it was first released in 1996 (I think). It was re-released in 2004 featuring True Color (instead of 256 colors) and remastered in-game videos.

Although the game got a lot of praise, there were some bad reviews, too.

So who played it and what do you guys think about it?

I played the demo of the original and liked it. True colors now? That's definately interesting.

One of the freakiest, most disturbing games ever. Yet insanely cool.

I remember playing it 6-7 years ago. It was a pretty good game at the time. I got stuck at one point though, so I never finished it. That's all I can remember about the game

Played it a bit like two years ago. Seemed interesting but it has what I personally consider a sin for an adventure game: the roach has lives (you can die).
In an adventure game, as you enter a new room/space/area, you check it out. In Bad Mojo it usually resulted in your death, so having three lives hinders the experience.

But I'd give it a second chance.

Yeah I read about the lives thing. But what about saving? I thought you could save everywhere?

I thought you could save everywhere?

I don't have a clue about that. Maybe in the redux vers.

To tell the truth, I got it from The Underdogs in a time when downloading a game was more important than playing it. Check if it's still available there and give it a try.

 

[jarosh]

Nope. No longer available. No surprise though, as it was re-released in 2004... Really thinking about ordering it.

I've seen it in a jewel case at Target for $10. It's well worth that, and I've never even played the Redux Version.
