I don't think it did.  But then again, I've never played it for any computer.

I can't find any video, but it's a first person puzzle game that is trippy and creepy.

I like the Atari ST version, the YM chip makes the music creepier.



I'm trying to find a download for the sequel:

Yeah it's fun, but it's not the first thing I'd pick up and play. It's more of a boring day kinda thing.

I remember that list. He forgot Alpha Waves/Continuum.
