History

Lester Chaykin, a physicist, is stranded with almost no readable text in Another World, Eric Chahi's rotoscoped adventure published by Delphine. A cage, a whip, and an alien ally replace a tutorial, and the player learns by dying.

Delphine published that silent planet in 1991, with rotoscoped figures that move like filmed bodies. The beast in the opening is a lesson in timing rather than a stat check.

North America called the same game Out of This World. The physicist, the alien buddy, and the near-absence of words are the work, under either title.
