It's not Future Wars.

The screens in my game are more advanced, and more colourful. There is also speech in my game, and you don't travel back in time. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Maybe if I describe the train station more? There is an esculator going up and down. Then there is a security forcefield. It is here that you must buy a train pass \ ticket. You only have to do this once - after that, you can just walk through the forcefield, and it detects that you have the ticket already. Then you walk right into the train. For some reason, I think the brick wall in the train station is important, but I can't remember why.

Any other ideas?

EDIT: He (the bald man) wears dark shades, as well.

So it's futuristic? If it has speech it must come on CD, hmm. Was it a DOS game?

Fubb, it's not Beneath A Steel Sky, although that is excellent game.


Red Avatar. Yes, it's futuristic. It's all dark and atmostpheric, like Blade Runner. I'm guessing it was mid-late 1990s, so it must have come on cd, and it was probably not Dos.

These questions are helping me remember more of it. I can see the bald man clearly in my head. He has a brown jacket.

I think at one stage, you have to get through a horror \ haunted \ abandoned theme park.

Hmmm let me look around a bit - it does ring a little bell.

Was it in VGA or SVGA? Did it have pre-rendered graphics?

Nah can't be that - you're not bald and I don't recall a train or a theme park.

I thought it might have been Sanitarium but that doesn't fit half the things you said.

Definately not Dreamweb or Sanitarium, althrough graphics style is similar to Sanitarium. So that's SVGA then?

Not sure about pre-rendered graphics. Can you give an example please?

It was more sci-fi, than Sanitarium-like-horror.

I think the bald man was called Jeeves, or something similar.
