Tex Murphy: The Pandora Directive 1996

Is it still worth playing?

It is April 2043 in San Francisco, after a third world war. Tex Murphy, the last of the old style gumshoes, has a missing person case that runs into a crashed spacecraft at Roswell, the lost Mayan civilization and a conspiracy. It is a 1996 adventure for MS-DOS, the fourth Tex Murphy. It is first person in real time 3D, with unrestricted movement, objects to examine, combine and use, logic puzzles and conversations in which the choices are shown as short descriptions of what Tex will say rather than the words. The story branches down three paths, Mission Street, the virtuous one, the Boulevard of Broken Dreams, the selfish one, and Lombard Street between, with several endings. The three paths still leave the detective you are to decide how it ends.
