an amazing point and click adventure game that I played constantly when i was a kid on the ps1. i always wanted to play the pc version because it has more content and better video and sound quality but it's extremely hard to get running on modern systems.

One of my most favorite games of all time. This GEM is an FMV that features the original cast, and captures the essense of the X Files universe. I loved this game back when I had it many years ago. I'd love to get it again!

I still have the 7 (?) CDs if you need them to upload the game :)
As a kid who should probably not have watched so much X-Files (thanks for the nightmares Tooms), this one will always stay with me. One of the best of the FMV era

Part of the X-Files phenomenon, this was what introduced me to the show as a kid (weird, I know), and I've been a fan ever since. Sure, Mulder and Scully are barely in it as it's a companion piece, but it was a fun FMV game in its own right that's surprisingly complex with its inventory and the like- so fun, in fact, I had to install my old discs awhile back to do a Youtube playthrough.

I never owned this game but a friend down the road from me did, and he'd come over everyday and we'd play it and work through the puzzles and it was really good fun. Made us feel like we were in the X-Files at the time.

One of my all time fav games. I bought a playstation just to play this game. I never bought or played any other playstation game ever. I have a sealed copy of the PC version of this game. I even have the prima guide that comes with it. This is a very fun game, especially if you like the show.

This is in my top 5 favorite games of all-time, based on my favorite TV show of all-time. What a perfect way to encapsulate the show than to literally put you into an episode. FMV games were all the rage in the 90s and this one oozes the perfect atmosphere of the time, the show, the setting, and the world in that moment. I would absolutely love an easier way to play it than fiddling around with the discs on a PC or the inferior PS1 version.

An absolute joy for the fans of the series. This game has so much content and depth that really makes you immerse into the X-Files universe completely.
I remember renting the game from a local PC game rent store, then making copies of it and creating my own boxed version... Later on I was lucky to find one original copy in US Ebay, which I've bought and hold it very dearly in my home office. FMV masterpiece!

@VuitheirtFebruary 03, 2025
It's a really fun game with a good story, supported by the cast of the show. My mom was a huge X files fan and I remember her playing this, she really liked it and I've also played it and loved it
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Trending Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
