bad mojo
THE ROACH GAME
The basic premise in Bad Mojo is to explore, discover and observe.
An old, brick building in San Francisco is the site of Eddie's Bar on the Waterfront, which was once a popular tavern. Above the bar lives Roger Samms, an entomologist who is conducting mysterious research. At the onset of the game, Roger is trnsformed into a cockroach by a strange object of antiquity. You assume the role of Roger after his bizarre metamorphosis.
Controlling the roach/Roger, you begin the game under the building. You must explore rooms and observe objects while searching for clues and answers. The building is dark and dangerous, and there are many obstacles to overcome before you can find your way back to humanity. There are animals, insects and people who live here as well. Some may harm you, others may help you, but solving the mystery beneath the surfcase of the game is up to you alone.
You must uncover the rest of the story yourself by roaming the floors and walls of Eddie's Bar. Listen to all that you hear, read what you can and try to piece together the story as you explore your true identity.
Crawl around and investigate everything. If you can't get out of a room, then perhaps you haven't seen all there is to see...

yeah, I know, impossible to even find a PC with those specs :]
This is the original 1996 game in the big cardboard box. It still works (big surprise to me), and I'm selling it. This is NOT the 2004 remake. This is NOT Redux. This is the original. I needed to say that, just to make sure everyone knows it before they place a bid.
This game only runs on 256 colours, so to install this you will need to do a little more then just sticking the cd in the cd-rom and wait for it to do the rest. Don't worry, I printed everything out on a nice piece of paper and inserted in the box on what to do.
You basically just have to go to the setup.exe on the disk, and run it in 256 colour compatibility. after installing you'll also need to install the old quicktime that comes alone with this game. Just skip the option everytime it asks if you want to delete any other versions of quicktime. And lastly you'll have to go to the start menu's Bad Mojo shortcut, right click that one, and make sure its properties compatibility is also set to 256 colour.
Let it simmer until a thicker consistency, add salt to taste and garnish before serving.
Finally, play the game.
