Uninvited

(Icom Simulations/Mindscape, 1986, Mac)

Much like Shadowgate (its successor, not predecessor), this game's interface allowed you to pick up anything that wasn't bolted down, and put it in inventory. The puzzle was in deciding exactly which items were truly needed, to help find your lost brother in a creepy haunted mansion. From Southern Belle Ghosts to zombies, and even a truly oddball greenhouse, this was one of the best haunted house games I ever played...and there have been many. For this reason and more, it's a firm member of Techtite's choices for Top 50 Multimedia Classics.

Rating : Deep Impact.
