An interview with MediaX president Nancy Poertner published in a 1999 issue of GameWeek described the game as an “interactive adventure game with role-playing elements” that combined “the detail of Riven” and “the real-time world of Quake.”

Ah, the 90s

Hate it. If 1984 was meant to have a sequel George Orwell would have written one.

I think the late TempleOS guy also had a sequel project for 1984. What’s the appeal?
