Description of Deja Vu: A Nightmare Comes True!!

The first ICOM game, Deja Vu 1 introduces multiple-window user interface, mouse support (back in 1986-- when not many people knew what a "mouse" was), and true WYSIWYG.

In this game, you wake up with (surprise, surprise) an amnesia in a decrepit bar. Puzzles are somewhat difficult due to the fact that only about half of what you can carry are actually useful. The game gives you only a vague sense of what to do next, so the illusion of non-linearity is effective. The periodic flashbacks are a nice touch as they advance the story. There IS a time limit, so save often!

The game works fine in DOSBox.

Run the RUNME.BAT file.

Make sure your mouse is captured because it uses it.

This is actually a VERY cool game, by the same company that did "Uninvited".

One of the earliest multi-window RPG's of it's time.

I played it on Amiga several years ago: an awesome graphic adventure, if you consider it was realesed in 1987.
Amiga version had 32 colours instead of 4 of CGA PC one.

Beautiful and mysterious plot, but hard to finish!

I recommend it to you!
