I played this game as a teenager in the early 90s and never completed it. I looked for it for YEARS, asked for it at every game store I visited. 20 years later, I found it here on steam and finally finished! It is weird, creepy, and graphic, but the storyline is excellent, it literally stuck with me for 20 years hoping to resolve it. Love this game ,should play it again soon.
This game is a landmark title in the history of PC gaming, and even decades after its release, it remains a fascinating experience. I would rate it a 9 out of 10 for its ambition, storytelling, and the impact it had at the time. One of the most impressive aspects of the game is how revolutionary it was. At a time when most games relied on simple graphics and limited narrative depth, Phantasmagoria pushed boundaries with full-motion video, live actors, and a cinematic approach to horror storytelling. The sheer scale of the project (spanning seven CDs) was almost unheard of and demonstrated a level of ambition that set it apart from its contemporaries. The story is another highlight. It delivers a gripping and often disturbing narrative that keeps the player engaged from beginning to end. The atmosphere is tense, the pacing is effective, and the gradual descent into horror is handled in a memorable way. It’s clear that a lot of effort went into crafting a narrative that feels immersive and emotionally impactful. That said, the game does show its age, particularly in terms of video quality. The full-motion video sequences, while groundbreaking at the time, now appear grainy and outdated. This can sometimes detract from the overall experience, especially for modern players accustomed to high-definition visuals. However, considering the technological limitations of its era, these shortcomings are understandable. In fact, they can even add a certain charm, reminding players of how far the medium has come. When viewed in its historical context, Phantasmagoria stands out as a bold and innovative project that achieved something truly special. Overall, despite its dated visuals, it remains a great game with a compelling story and an important place in gaming history.
Roberta Williams had major ambition with this title. I remember playing it on my old Packard Bell. It is very stylistic - overuse of CG furniture - but its a fun type of gaudy. The story plays out straightforward but the real fun is the mixing of Sierra "adventurism" and graphic capabilities. Ultimately I'm not sure if it works. But it's charming enough to get me to go back and explore it's mansion every few years.
The funniest horror game in the world. Great atmosphere, soundtrack, memorable characters and good story (which was a bit rushed at the end, lots of exposition and all that), but overall it was great experience which wasn't drawn out at all. There is no "definitive" way to finish the game - you can take multiple paths at the end to finish it. I highly recommend you trying it if you want to take in the vibes of what the 90's were all about
An enthralling relic of the past and a solid, slow burn of suspense, horror and '90s FMV perfection. If you're nostalgic for this sort of thing, you will likely enjoy Phantasmagoria. As I am still playing it, and taking my time exploring and moseying around as one does with this sort of game, I can't speak on the later game stuff, but if there is anything game breaking, I'll update this review. For now, I am going to get back to enjoying this charming, spooky game. Update: Apparently, the save function is not working properly.
