Wow, I remember playing this game a long time ago! It's a first person platformer puzzle game from 1998. I recall having a blast with it. It was really difficult so I never managed to play it. I hope to see it here because the game is kinda difficult to get running on modern machines. Please GOG!

I've played the demo of it so much. Wasn't able to get the full version (not for the financial reasons) though and I really would love to play it legally.

I used to play this game all the time with my brother and my dad growing up. We were obsessed with the unique settings and style. One of the earlier and more ambitious takes on 3D platformers.

This was a surprisingly well done and fun platformer, it was first person and based off the old Montezuma's revenge video game from the 80s. I remember back then it was required to have a voodoo card so I can never get this game to run on future hardware. I would believe this is very much playable today and would be a great addition to good old games.

I got this game ages ago on a PC Gaming Magazine CD-ROM as the full version and i loved it! The dream-like level design, the mysterious music and fun but not too hard puzzles are what drew me in from the start. It's a fun 3D platformer that would look great even today thanks to its stylized graphics and almost liminal world. I would love to buy it on GOG and add it to my collection!
Absolutely magnificent game, endlessly entertaining, funny and clever, and rather unique in its first-person platforming. Very "gamey": there is no pretense of realism and logic; it's all about fun platforming puzzles in a highly atmospheric Aztec temple. The design and sounds of the enemies are hilarious. Ridiculously overlooked and underrated.
