Bad Mojo. A little adventure/puzzle game from 1996 where you play the role of a man turned into a cockroach. Try to figure out what's going on, and how to survive in a world brought much closer, with all the dangers therein. Re-released in 2004 with Bad Mojo Redux (the version here), including some higher resolution, and capability of running on more modern operating systems (so far including Windows 10). This game is available on both Steam and GoG.

So, how is it? So far, pretty good. I'm not sure if there are only six "stages", or once they are all unlocked I will have to bounce between them to solve more puzzles. But progress is going fairly quickly so far. Sometimes the puzzles take a bit of nudging to get them to work right, but there haven't been any overly troublesome hangups. And the production values, including some live-action FMVs, are quite remarkable for the time. Sure, the main actor was hamming it up with the facial expressions and gnawing on as much scenery as he could, but the sets are good, the CGI was impressive for the time, and overall the quality of this game is quite remarkable. I am glad to finally be getting a chance to play this gem. -- Watch live at https://www.twitch.tv/the_nametag
