Description

A port of the Acorn game of the same name; now available from the public domain.
Sometimes a cigar is just a...
...representation of a insane brain cell powered teleporter from your ego to you id.
Journey through young Sigmond's unstable mind and disable a few malfunctioning brain cells to restore his sanity.
Grab anything that doesn't move, shoot everything else, shut down brain cells, and kneel before the candle candelabra.

The original game, source and binaries, was declaired Public Domain by the author. The author of this port claims GPLv3. Strictly speaking, this is a tinuous license if even valid at all, since it is based on a work in the public domain. Licensing it as GPLv3 puts it under copyright, which is unconstitutional (for a PD work) and has never been done by person or entity other than the US congress (and they do so unconstitutionally as well).
