Does anyone remember?

[lassiie]

I have recently been thinking about a game that was released about 13 years ago...The name of the game was Messiah...I honestly remember very little of it, except that you were a baby angel and could possess enemies to sneak around and kill other enemies

Was just curious if anyone else played this game, and was also curious why that idea hasn't been expanded on, cause it seems like in the hands of the right people, you could make a pretty amazing game if the idea was expanded on.

Or maybe there already has been a game like it and I just don't know

a game where possession is a mechanic?


There's also some indie game I can't remember where possession is a major mechanic.

But...OP remembers little about playing the game, however, knows the name. How is that supposed to help?

OT: never played it, but I came across it a couple of times. Sounded like something I'd like to check out but never got around to it, unfortunately. As for the idea...erm, MindJack tries to do something like it, but falls rather short for being a horrible mess. I can't recall any others. Though Dungeon Keeper let's you order minions around (not really control) and you can possess them directly to go into first person and get a more direct control.
