Gameplay[]
The player is cast into the role of a barfly of the name Jack hanging around a smelly, rundown establishment called Avalon.
Fate decides Jack overhears a couple of patrons conspiring to murder someone. Barely standing on his feet and overrun by nasty hallucinations Jack decides to try his best at preventing the killing.
The game has typical point and click adventure game controls. You use the mouse cursor to move your character around the screen and to interact with the environment.
