Trying to remember a game...

[Cavallino]

Ok this is gonna be tough, but Ill try to describe it as much as possible.

It was a kind of adventure game in prerendered 3d graphics (pointy/clicky).
Set in a fictional (magical/monsters etc) type universe.
I remember it had a looping audio track on the demo that I played....
And I think it was released around the early/mid 1990s.

The game was not a hit or anything like that, but I just want to remember the frikkin name of the game!

Return to Zork

was it on CD or floppy?

 

[Jamielicious]

Return to Zork was what I thought as well. It sounded a little like one of the Journeyman Project games but that was set in a more historical setting.

Toonstruck?
Curse of Enchantia?
Any of the sierra games like king quest or Quest for glory etc?
I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream?

Tho does sound like a discworld game but you said somit about pre rendered backgrounds which those had.

Few questions tho to clear it up.

Was it a fmv game
Was it first or 3rd person perspective.
Was it cartoony looking or realistic looking like say between sam and max or gabriel knight etc.
Was it a windows or dos game
What do you remember from the game, the main character, a scene?
Did it have text for speech or voice over work for speech?
etc.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_games_with_prerendered_backgrounds any of these?

 

[Cavallino]

I remember a scene where there was weird looking monster guy who talked to you in a weird voice over language (and who doesn't have a tongue - so he spoke a bit funny).
E: Oh it was firs person perspective also by the way!
