Overview

Aliens: A Comic Book Adventure is a point‑and‑click adventure for MS‑DOS, developed by Cryo Interactive and published by Mindscape in 1995. Loosely inspired by Dark Horse’s Aliens comics (notably Labyrinth), the game strands a Colonial Marine–led team on a remote outpost where a Xenomorph outbreak has occurred. You explore pre‑rendered locations, gather clues and items, and survive encounters through a mix of investigation and tactical, grid‑based combat.

Gameplay – MS‑DOS

Presented with cinematic stills and FMV‑style sequences, play centers on scanning rooms for interactive hotspots, managing inventory and crew status, using terminals, and making choices during hostile encounters. The interface places STATUS and CONFIG readouts along the bottom of the screen, with mission logs and map access via UI panels.
