Touted as an interactive movie, Gadget is a compilation of QuickTime movies and 3-D graphically rendered backgrounds which immerses you in a mystery quest from the beginning. It seems there is a comet headed for earth and through enigmatic meetings and vague clues that only hint at this potentially cataclysmic event, you find yourself compelled to search for answers to this dilemma. You'll encounter scientists, strange people, cryptic items and engage in odd conversations to gain information in your search for a mysterious person, Horselover, who seems to be at the heart of the matter. New and old technology blends in a fantastic visual mix as the story unfolds from a first-person interactive perspective.

Innovative, fantastic inventions (gadgets) and a journey of surrealistic travel awaits you in this unique world. Whether in interactive or cinematic mode, Gadget provides a moody, atmospheric trip while you are pursuing Horselover and his six research associates. Partly filmed in black and white for effect (most of the cinematics), the game is dark and fairly drips with its own unusual ambiance.

Gadget puts you in a strange surreal world were a comet appears to be heading for the earth. Most people dismiss this situation since apparently it won't collide with us, however a group of scientists scramble to develop a way to stop this comet. Whether they want to destroy it, divert it, or whatever is unknown however, and you are charged with the task to find out what really is going on.
