Sanitarium Comes to Good Old Games

By Joe Haygood | November 10, 2009

For those of us that can remember back to 1998, there was a great adventure game that was released on the PC by the name, Sanitarium.  Sanitarium was made by a company called ASC Games.  The game did not sell all that well, but it did end up garnering a lot of cult status and fame in the gaming community because of how creepy the game could be when playing.

ASC Games ended up signing with Activision to make a game based on the role-playing game Werewolf, and a few years later, that game was cancelled, and the company disappeared shortly thereafter.  While that company is gone, ASC Games’ Sanitarium lives on, now without having to switch discs to install, and with no DRM whatsoever at GOG.com.  Add in the fact that they have included a full ripped soundtrack from the game, and anyone that wants to play a great, scary adventure game that will mess with your mind should grab this game.
