This game is pretty old, just a little after Back to the Future movies filled our perception, and before The undeniably great Episode II: Attack of the Clones.

It is, in my opinion, the most cinematic and moody hand-drawn game in the history of games. I am tempted to summarize the story and premise presentation, but I rather give you the pleasure to find out for yourselves.
