Fascination, released in 1991 for DOS, is a point-and-click adventure that clearly wanted to be edgy, mysterious, and just a little bit scandalous. Set in a neon-soaked future full of conspiracies, secret labs, and questionable fashion choices, the game mixes sci-fi intrigue with puzzle-solving that ranges from clever to mildly sadistic. The humor is subtle but present, often hiding in background details or slightly absurd situations. Visually, it leans heavily into early ’90s cyberpunk aesthetics, complete with moody lighting and digitized characters that now look unintentionally funny. What really defines Fascination is its ambition: it wants to tell a serious story about power and manipulation, even when the interface fights you and the pacing occasionally stalls. Despite its flaws, it remains memorable for daring to be strange, adult, and narratively driven in an era where many adventures played it much safer.
