tSoM site goes to a page spoofing Infocom games, and in the site Andrew also discusses his love of their textual adventures.

Anyone know of any other gaming links with tSoM?

I know the team at Odin Computer Graphics produced a game called Heartland with a character called Eldritch for the Sinclair Spectrum back in 1986; and I read in several places that they were huge tSoM fans.

I also recently heard Dominion on the radio in Grand Theft Auto IV by Rockstar Games.

Ironically (or maybe not? ;)), the subject of that page popped up on Dominion not so long ago... :lol:

Several levels of Lemmings have Sisters songs as titles.


Not TSOM, but...

the player character - and hence the title - for PS2 game Red Dead Revolver comes from Nick Cave's "Red Right Hand".

Need a campaign to get The Sisters into Rock Band or Guitar Hero :)

I am sure The Sisters would be in a game called Goth Band, along with The Cult et al.

Would be great!
