The Neverhood is a 1996 adventure game developed by Riverhill Soft and published by DreamWorks Interactive.
The Neverhood (released in Japan as Klaymen Klaymen: The Mystery of Neverhood) is a 1996 point-and-click adventure video game developed by The Neverhood, Inc. and published by DreamWorks Interactive for Microsoft Windows. The game follows the adventure of a claymation character named Klaymen as he discovers his origins and his purpose in a world made entirely out of clay.
When the game was originally released, it was unique in that all of its animation was done entirely in claymation, including all of the sets. The gameplay consists mostly of guiding the main character Klaymen around and solving puzzles to advance. Video sequences help advance the plot.
In addition to being unique, The Neverhood aimed at being quirky and humorous, as is evident from the characters, the music, and the plot sequence. The game has garnered a cult following. It received a sequel in 1998, Skullmonkeys, which was a platform game, abandoning the adventure format of the original. Armikrog was later released as a spiritual successor to the game, developed by many members of the same team.
The Neverhood is abandonware and no longer sold or supported by its publishers. Files are archived here for these platforms:
Then had to run the program in Windows 95 compatibility mode, selected through properties for NHC.exe. Bit of a hassle, but got there!
