Świrus (Czech: Dr. Šílenec) is a 1996 Polish adventure video game developed by Mirage and published by Vochozka Trading, who also translated the game into Czech.[1] Some years after its original release the game was released as a free download.[2]

Production

Świrus is the first polish adventure game designed for Windows.[3] The humour of the game derives from the culture of Polish life in the 1980s and 1990s.[3]

Plot and gameplay

Świrus is a classic point & click adventure game, viewed from a first person perspective. it includes the command verb-based SCUMM interface. It features a comic art style.[2] The player takes control of a teenager named Phillip who is visited by a clone from the future with a warning that he is the only one who can save the world from a mad Polish doctor named Dr. Šílenec.[2]

Critical reception

In a nostalgic review of the game 18 years after its release Cnews.cz noted the game's sometimes crazy sense of logic.[1]
