Developed in conjunction with the show's creator, Chris Carter, this interactive odyssey features a new X-Files storyline for a completely unique X-perience that remains true to the mystery and intrigue of the television show.

"With the VirtualCinema software and story-driven interactivity, we are able to capture the mysterious X-Files style and provide players with a unique and authentic interactive experience."

The X-Files CD-ROM for Macintosh and Windows 95 brings the dark and mysterious mood and tone of the television series right onto the computer screen incorporating the all-new X-Files storyline.
