I thought it might have been Sanitarium but that doesn't fit half the things you said.

Definately not Dreamweb or Sanitarium, althrough graphics style is similar to Sanitarium. So that's SVGA then?

Not sure about pre-rendered graphics. Can you give an example please?

It was more sci-fi, than Sanitarium-like-horror.

I think the bald man was called Jeeves, or something similar.

Jeeves? not Wodehouse of Horror?

Pre-rendered = computer graphics. Most older games were drawn by hand but a lot of the later ones were 3D backdrops.

I'll have another look later - I'm curious as well which game it could be.

I would guess the game is "Gadget: Invention, Travel, & Adventure" , also known as "Gadget: Past as Future".

That's not it , although it looks like an interesting game. Thanks for your suggestion.

The train was only used to get from place to place. Most of the story took place outside the train.

I remember a nightclub, with a big flashy sign outside it (Blade Runner style), and a woman with dark hair was inside the nightclub.

EDIT: If I could only put these pieces together, and remember what it is called. :notrust:

Hum, sci-fi, bald guy, night club blade runner style, then I guess it can be this one "Nightlong: Union City Conspiracy" (although I don't remember trains in it).

THAT'S IT!!! :nuts: *hugs TechnoSpike*

Thankyou TechnoSpike. :thumbs:


Here's the train station I was trying to describe, but they call it a subway - http://www.mobygames.com/game/window...eShotId,19203/
And the bald man is called Joshua, not Jeeves. Where did I get Jeeves from?


Thanks also Red Avatar for your help.


*goes searching through eBay for a copy*

Do you know, why I didn't propose that game?

<- it's a link

Found it two seconds after encountering this thread, using the search with Key Word bald and User Name Frodo.

You see, I know my request threads. And now prepare.

[edit] Joshua Reev = Jeeves [/edit]
