Anachronox is a 2001 role-playing video game developed by Ion Storm and published by Eidos Interactive with a futuristic, cyberpunk-inspired setting. The game was written and directed by Tom Hall, one of the original developers behind Doom and Quake. The story of Anachronox takes place in a galaxy where technology and magic coexist. The game’s protagonist, Sylvester "Sly" Boots, is a down-on-his-luck private investigator who finds himself drawn into a much larger, cosmic conspiracy.
GameSpy : "Beyond the few annoyances that come with the various genres and the required patch, Anachronox is fun, engaging, and very entertaining. Some will be drawn in by the story, some by the humor, and some by the sheer originality of the world that has been created. Whatever your reason, this isn't one to miss. It's a pleasurable experience that will entertain you for hours on end."
