Description from the packaging.

Descend into the vast worlds of molten terror!

The terror began...When you were eight and your twin brother Alex vanished into the black maze of mine tunnels beneath Vista Forge- the home of your Uncle Boris' demon-filled Waxworks.

Twenty years later...Uncle Boris dies, leaving you his collection of fiendish displays- and the stupefying news that Alex is alive. Possessed by a 500 year old family curse, your brother schemes to resurrect the undead denizens of...

Five blood-soaked worlds of the past, present and future...19th century London, ancient Egypt, an abandoned mine shaft, a haunted cemetery and the malevolent chambers of the Waxworks itself.

Your only hope...to save Alex lies in removing the curse of the witch Ixona. And a courage you're not sure you possess.

  • Over 100 hours of spine chilling role playing action. Enter the gates of a haunted cemetery and unearth zombies that are starved for human flesh.
  • In your face terror from a first person perspective. Engage in hand to hand combat with over 100 horrible enemies.
  • Icon driven with an intuitive point and click interface. Can you stop Alex from turning the evil entities of five craven worlds loose on mankind?
  • Blood curdling VGA color graphics. Experience the chills of classic 50's Sci-fi films as mutant monsters turn a coal mine into a tunnel of terror.
  • Suspenseful soundtrack is the score for the scares. Transport yourself to ancient Egypt where a 3,000 year old priest waits to imbibe your blood.
  • Countless weapons, artifacts, and objects to grab and use. How do you stop Jack the Ripper? Use magic relics to get advice from your dead Uncle Boris.
