I love the way there's an option to view this in 720p HD. As clunky as this game was, it has great, great memories for me. Being about 9 years old and trying to figure out what the hell to do was hilarious: * "What colour pass do you want?" * Er, green? * "OK good luck" * Thanks mate! * "Get lost" * Oh. OK. Oh there's another guy. Er, here's my pass "You're dead meat" Er....uh...*stun gun* YEAH?! YEAH! WHO'S DEAD MEAT NOW? *fires stun gun about 30 times into victim* run away! Nexus owns
I remember when I worked out how to kill people on this(I dare say I would have worked it out quicker had I actually read the on screen instructions)! brilliant.
I spent quite some time with this game but never got far. The stun gun was fun to play with though. And I always thought Kath at 4:26 looked just like a guy in my school at the time... :-)
I thought the music was inspired. It had a really unique style to it. The game was repetitive, I remember it came with zero instructions. So you had to figure out what to do yourself. It was about collecting pieces of a puzzle. You had to put them all together in a single room. There were 100s of rooms to search, the more your searched, the bigger chance you had of setting off alarms and getting the guards on you. "Get back down the corridor" or worse: "Your dead meat..."
I remember this bizarre, nostalgic game! I never had any clue what I was doing, I just used to run around and explore. The word "Nexus" became synonymous among my friends for crap music, crap graphics and pointless gameplay... but that didn't stop me loving it all the same. Lol @ the 45-minute boat journey that terminates in a crash! I don't think they ever playtested this game!
@PsychoPoet406 I would not say crap music as I found it quite cool... and the digitized images were cool as well. But yes, I did not have a clue either what to do... I still wonder what you actually was supposed to do.
I had a trainer - a special elevator-card, where I could left the elevator at any stage in the building without alarm trigger. But also with that card, I never solved it. Too big, too hard ... but unique!
I remember seeing the marketing for this game and thinking it looked awesome. Apparently not. The look and feel remind me of both Blade Runner and Back to the future C64 game ports. Both also shocking, unsurprisingly. I actually really wanted both of them too!
This game did my fucking head in when I was 6.
