In 1995, Phantasmagoria shocked the gaming world with its blend of live-action horror, mature storytelling, and cinematic ambition. In this episode, we explore how Roberta Williams and Sierra On-Line broke new ground by merging Hollywood filmmaking with interactive adventure design. We trace the game’s development from concept to its massive seven-disc release, examining the technical innovations and production challenges that brought its haunted mansion to life.

Join us as we uncover the chilling legacy of Phantasmagoria on today’s trip down Memory Card Lane.
