Ready for an experiment? In Experiment 112, you'll experience innovative-shared adventure across dilapidated ships, sweeping cliffs and across scenic coastlines. Mysteriously, you find yourself in the ship's operations room faced with a highly advanced panel of controls, surveillance monitors, and a wide array of sophisticated technology. As you watch the monitors for other signs of life, you discover a woman, Professor Lea Nichols, in a cabin connected to intravenous tubes. Unable to find a way to communicate with her directly, you realize that you are her only hope. She needs your help to escape her prison and get the medical help she desperately needs. The problem is, an unseen captor too is holding you prisoner. The only way to escape is to help one another. But who are you? Who is she? Why do you control both your fates? Is escape from this floating prison your only goal?

Customer Reviews
Not my cup of tea
No, this is definitely not the typical point and click adventure games. You aren't actually even moving a character...you basically control a ship and the main character moves through the ship as you turn on lights and open doors for her. The interface is strange, with an overabundance of separate windows that exist on your screen, including the cameras you are controlling. I found this game to be frustrating and cumbersome, with none of the actual interesting aspects of adventure games, such as exploring an area, solving puzzles, interacting with characters, and beautiful scenery/graphics.
Extremely annoying interface
If you want enjoyable game play with interesting visuals do not play this game. If you like to figure out how to program your new television or other software set up, then you might like this game. It's very cumbersome to try and get the main character to go/do want you want. You have to move a alot of windows around to see anything at all. Not fun at all. Very slow paced.
I also wish I could play this game
The game would not play. After investigating on the company website I found my video card was not sufficient even though it met the requirements stated on the box. Check company website to see if your card will work.
