What Queensrÿche's Promised Land is
Queensrÿche's Promised Land is an adventure game developed by MediaX and released in 1996. It was published by EMI Records. It is available on Mac only.
The premise, in the publisher's words
The premise of the game is all about the symbol or totem of the band (called the "Tri-rÿche"), which is composed of five parts, and at the beginning of the game it scatters every piece in a different "world", and each of these worlds happen to be created by each of the band member's dreams and worries. So your job is to find each of the pieces and rebuild the totem, and to accomplish this you'll have to solve puzzles and minigames. As you find each piece, the band member who "owns" that world lets you have a glimpse of his work in the band in the form of musical videos.
