Ever Neverhood September 20, 2008
NEVERHOOD, a claymation game, stood sadly for years in its WIN95 box among my other dead games. Today, in 2008, I took down the box and tried the game in DOSbox 0.72, in my Win98_SE VM, and in XP & Vista. Much to my astonishment, this old shoe runs without difficulty in XP, but not in the emulators. I make a practice of saving the oldies-but-goodies games, even though many of them will never run again unless I dig through my basement for a WIN95 carcass and give it the sparks of life (It Lives! It Lives!).
NEVERHOOD is a charming, leisurely-paced point and click adventure game. The puzzles are funky but logical, and the game has a point to it. I recommend it to young and old alike as a wonderful diversion from the world of the first-person shooters and the horde of pimply-faced adolescents who make them so salable. The fact that it will run under XP Pro in is original WIN95 form makes it available to all.
The Greatest Game You Probably Never Heard Of. April 30, 2007
This game is just amazing. It's coming up on 11 years since it came out, and it's still ridiculously good times. The humor that goes into the game is so out there and ridiculous that you cant help but enjoy yourself, and the style of the game shows it. The claymation is great, and really funny. The puzzles involve a good deal of thought, but still manage to be funny. The levels are just as weird as everything else in the game (One room is actually a french fry sandwich from the outside). And it may have one of the greatest original soundtracks that a game has ever had. Some people may recognize the style from the sequel Playstation game that came out after this called Skullmonkeys (another great game by the same people), and if they liked that at all they'll love this. I suggest you check it out immediately, and try and get your hands on a copy by whatever means necessary. Until then, see you in the Neverhood.
Best Game Ever !!! For real !! November 25, 2006

Yesterday I was arranging my old CDs box, I found this CD along with lots of beautiful and sad memories. I said to myself, lets give it a try, and yes, it works !!! and I started playing it just like if I was before almost 6 years (life passes away very fast).
Guess what !? It's still FUN to play and all puzzles are like new to me :)
But why the developers are not making other versions of this game anymore ?
I hope they come up with something new like this in the next years.

This game is long and slow and incredibly frustrating, and worth every minute! We got a second hand copy without any directions or anything with it. Fortunately there are hints online, but there is nothing quite like the thrill of figuring out the puzzles all on your own. We also looked forward to the new discoveries in each part of the world and checking out all the surrounding stuff to see what we might discover... And it's just as fun to play again even after you have reached the end! I also highly recommend the soundtrack featuring all of the ingenius tunes from Neverhood and Skullmonkeys: [...]
