The Dark Eye
Spurred on in large part by the success of CD-ROM games like Myst, these games emphasized flashy production values and well-known (or at least, recognizable) actors over gameplay. These include unsuccessful games such as "The Horde" (starring Kirk Cameron), "A Fork in the Tale" (starring Rob Schneider), "Night Trap" (starring Dana Plato) and several games starring Tim Curry, and successful games such as the DreamWorks Studios title "The Neverhood", the Warner Bros.-produced Edgar Allan Poe game "The Dark Eye", and The Residents game "Bad Day on the Midway", and later "Wing Commander" games.
