Meet Sam Harlow. When some bad eggs poach his ex-wife, this hard-boiled P.I. scrambles to crack the case.

What they don't know is: he eats bad eggs for breakfast.

Hidden Credit

The invisible, automatically launched game application is named Troy P. Worrell, after the programmer.

Hidden Ending

Enter the command burger at any time to get beheaded with an axe.

The sky darkens as a huge axe swings down and lops your head off with one clean sweep.

This Easter egg is part of a long-running inside joke on the part of Interplay co-founder Rebecca "Burger" Heineman. Variations on the same scenario are concealed in many Interplay games.
