Download Phantasmagoria - Windows XP/98/95, DOS, Mac OS game

Phantasmagoria is a 1995 interactive horror adventure that pushed the boundaries of computer gaming with its use of live-action video, cinematic presentation, and a disturbing supernatural story. Players follow Adrienne, a writer who moves into an old mansion only to discover that the building has a rather unpleasant history. Exploration, puzzle-solving, and investigation combine with horror scenes that were unusually ambitious for the time. The game created plenty of discussion because of its mature themes and dramatic presentation, making it one of the most talked-about adventure titles of the 1990s. Phantasmagoria feels like an interactive horror movie where the player occasionally wishes the characters had researched the house before moving in. After all, “mysterious mansion with a dark past” is rarely the beginning of a relaxing vacation.

Phantasmagoria review

Computer Gaming World (1995): "Other than that, I would say that PHANTASMAGORIA has a great deal to offer. It's a beautiful program, well worth playing for its look and feel alone. Although it's a bit short, yielding only 20 to 30 hours of play for an average gamer, it can provide richly textured entertainment even to those who can't really appreciate its value as horror. For horror fans, PHANTASMAGORIA is a signal event, one of the most powerful titles ever released in the genre, and easily the most single-mindedly horrific. Like The Theatre du Grand Guignol, it is neither refined nor original – only moving. But blood and thunder has its own appeal."

Retro gamer collector's corner:

In October 1997, the first chapter of Phantasmagoria was included in the Roberta Williams Anthology, a limited-edition collection of 15 games created by Williams over 18 years.
