Is Deja Vu still worth playing in 2026?

A point-and-click adventure from Kemco, Deja Vu plunges amnesiac detective Mac Marlowe into a film-noir night city, where he investigates his past by searching places and clues. The noir mood, the writing and the old-school investigation keep real character, rare on the machine for an adventure of this kind. The menu interface is clunky and the sudden deaths frustrate. An estimable curiosity for fans of retro narrative adventure and MacVenture nostalgics.
