Transland

Transland is a video game in the action genre developed by ORIGIN Systems, Inc. and published by ORIGIN Systems, Inc. originally released in 1996. It is currently playable on DOS.

Not being a kid anymore and eager to explore the galaxy, you go to the spaceship sale and pick up a bargain. After takeoff, something goes wrong and your ship explodes, so you land safely in your combo/scooter escape unit on a strange world. The goal of the game is to restore the communications center. Transland is a short 3D action game with slight RPG elements. It is played from a first-person perspective and is reminiscent of Shadowcaster.

The player can explore the environment freely and there are four worlds to discover. Starting with Waterville, there are three houses, each with a character inside and a mission to complete in the correct order. First, the player has to go through a maze in Hedgeville to retrieve a jump drive. Once found, the player accesses Waterville. There, the jump drive is used to press buttons in the air to turn on fans. Enemies can be shot, but initially only the Lame gun is available. A more powerful gun can be found in this world, but with limited ammunition. The last world is Iceville, where you have to locate a panel remover. It consists of different areas where the ice has been divided into islands. Once the object is located, communications can be restored and the game is completed. Collected objects are saved in an inventory.

It is possible that we have multiple downloads available when different versions exist.
