The lost games thread

Vendetagainst:
So way back when I was a wee lad there was this game that my dad or uncle got me. It was a game about the (probably rather fantasized, but I cannot remember it very well) mafia. I think it had a top-down perspective and I remember the tutorial having an explosives expert and all that shit, and the graphics were absolutely horrible. It was a PC game (definitely Windows) and that's basically all I remember.

I know this an absolutely shitty thread, but my OCD will not let this topic rest (I have thought about this game quite literally for at least eight years). I assume that I will probably never find this game, but maybe somebody can recommend games of a little style and genre?

Vendetagainst:
Holy fucking shit, yes! Thank you, thank you ever so much.
Or at least maybe, it certainly looks like it.

Vendetagainst:
sweet, thanks. I bought an $8 used copy (that's with shipping :lol:) on Amazon.

Now that this thread has fulfilled its initial purpose, I am jackin' it.

Okay, so a long time ago (mid-90s) I had a demo of a game. It was basically a 3D point-and-click game. Not in the Lucasarts sense, per se, the viewpoint changed, but you clicked on things and the PC would interact with them. I'm pretty sure the characters were 3D models. Anyway, it was set in a sci-fi universe, and there are only a couple of things I remember about it. Your character wore sunglasses (I didn't want to overwhelm you with detail here), and in the demo there were a couple of things you could do. Next to your ship htere were barrels of some sort of black viscous liquid. If you dipped your hand in it once, you were fine. If you did it more than once, it would burn you and you would die. Probably a more interesting and telling thing that happened was you ended up alone in a room with a female character. Her boyfriend / husband / whatever is watching you through cameras. She basically throws herself at you. If you kiss her, the other dude gets pissed and sends enemies after you (the combat was thus: you hid behind something and had to point and shoot at enemies in the background) if you don't kiss her, you can go about your business unmolested by dudes with guns.

Sorry for the vagueness, but I just can't remember for the life of me what it was called, and I really dug that demo. I want to think it had a name like "Deadalus Encounter" (that's not the game I'm thinking of, I'm pretty sure) in that it had a greek name + "Encounter" or "Incident" or somesuch.
