Kotaku resurrects Afterlife 07 Apr, 2010 / 2 comments

Kotaku has posted an article on the 1996 LucasArts strategy game 'Afterlife'.

But I wish it had stuck its neck out and made it, literally, heaven and hell that you were controlling. It may as well have. The game's name, premise and fantastic advisor characters do their best to portray a Christian afterlife, so you know when you get the game, and know when you're playing, that despite the absence of the actual name (you play as a "Demiurge"), you're playing God. Literally. Heck, even the game's seven sins are, you guessed it, based on the church's Seven Deadly Sins, literally being sloth, envy, avarice, gluttony, pride, wrath and lust.

    One of the few LucasArts PC games I don't have and wish I have.
