It Came From the Desert is a fun action/adventure game that gets all its inspiration from the many cult horror (b) movies of the 50's and 60's. You play the part of Dr. Greg Bradley, a geologist and the new guy in town. Eager to satisfy your scientific mind you set out to examine the crash-site of a mysterious meteor, but what you find is not what you were looking for. Ants, twenty feet tall, go marching one by one, using your hometown as a picnic basket. Panic grips the city as this monster sized mutation strikes terror again and again. There's sound effects so eerie you can hear the distant marching of giant harvester ants on the prowl. Human drama abounds - blackmailing rivals, land scams, love triangles and desert cults. The game takes place all over Lizard Breath, and there are several different types of action / interaction. Though the adventure part of the game is very linear, it's still fun. And the action sequences, well, they're just what you'd expect from Cinemaware. The game was released as freeware in 2002. | ||
