Lane Mastodon vs. the Blubbermen

Description

The year is 2029 and the evil Blubbermen have invaded earth. Only heroic Lane Mastodon can stop them, in a setting resembling science-fiction of the 1950's.

Lane Mastodon vs. the Blubbermen is, along with Gamma Force in Pit of a Thousand Screams and the two ZorkQuest games, a part of the so-called InfoComics. The gameplay follows the same system as in the other games: the player reads text and views comic book panels (presented with CGA graphics in a vector format, including automatic zooming, panning, and rotating), occasionally being prompted to make a decision, thus leading the story into a different direction.

Trivia

Infocomics were a huge failure on the market for a number of reasons:

1. not truly a game (more like an interactive movie)
2. low CGA graphic appeal in a time when EGA was king
3. the low pricing did not inspire quality confidence in the consumer's mind.
