About this game

You play Cliff, a hard-boiled private eye trapped in a tall building that's about to be blown up. A very lengthy introduction gives you the largely irrelevant details of the case, after which you must descend through nine self-contained and linearly-arranged floors to win. Somewhat silly, with no real mystery solving necessary. Mostly relatively easy, but there are a few sticking points. Where this game really succeeds is in the descriptive text, which is done in the form of a chatty, rambling monologue by Cliff, with as many half-completed anecdotes as pertinent details.
