Edit:
Dem Namen nach hat der Designer des Spiels, Nicolas Choukroun, vor 10 Jahren bei The Legacy was zu dem Spiel ins Forum geschrieben:
This game has been cancelled by Fox after it has been released and duplicated at more than 100 000 pieces. The stock has been sold in less than one month, and the game won the best avanture game of the year in 1996 in France.
After Fox sued Mindscape the game has disapeared in all catalogs from Cryo and Mindscape, all the producers have been fired including the CEO of Mindscape US and Mindscape UK, all the contracts between Cryo have been cancelled.
Finally the French an dgerman version have been released underground by Cyo and Mindscape, with no support and with a lot of bugs.
The reason why Fox decided to kill the game certainly is in the game story itself. This game went futher than ever about Aliens, what they are. Also the story was very close to the Aliens 4 that was ready to be shooted.
Also Fox were working on several arcade games like Aliens VS Predator.
I suppose that this mess has been made to protect Fox assets from a potential competitor. Also, as everyone can see, Fox has never released an adventure game based on Aliens. They seems to avoid any possible competition to the movies.

Würde so einiges erklären.
Ich habe mittlerweile aufgegeben zu spielen. Inhaltlich fand ich es schon nicht gut, da hätten die Entwickler noch viel mehr Arbeit reinstecken müssen, abeer jetzt stürzt mir das Ding in der Dosbox ständig ab.
