What Nihilism is
Nihilism is an adventure game developed by Captain Mostly and released in 2001. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only. It runs on AGS.
The premise, in the publisher's words
In this little, surreal game, you are controlling Tom - a "servant of Yahtzee", sent to the town of Reality-on-the-Norm to make an inspection of the local "Yahtzeebrand" general store. The peculiar, MS-Paint graphics, the surreal humor and a lack of an actual ending make the experience of playing Nihilism quite unusual. The game is controlled with a mouse; similarly to Sam & Max Hit The Road, right-clicking changes the cursor action (Walk to, Look at, Interact with, Talk to). Your inventory, as well as the Save/Load/Quit buttons, are at the bottom of the screen.
How it plays
It is played from a side view perspective. Its themes are comedy. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component.
