Crazy Moo Games' "Canyon Capers'' is like an erotic daydream about chances missed and opportunities avoided and springed. For its hero, who spends several nights wandering in the sexual underworld, which are the 5 ancient worlds, it's all foreplay. He never actually has the 'treasure', secretly meaning sex, but he dances close, and holds its hand in the flame. Why does he do this? The easy answer is that the beauty of the gems has made him jealous. Another possibility is that the story it tells inflames his rather torpid imagination.

The game has the structure of a thriller, with the possibility that conspiracies and murders have taken place. It also resembles a nightmare; a series of strange characters drift in and out of focus, puzzling the hero with unexplained details of their lives. The reconciliation at the end of the game is the one scene that doesn't work; a film that intrigues us because of its loose ends shouldn't try to tidy up.

You play as an anonymous man, possibly has a wife and would therefore be a married couple who move in rich Manhattan society. In a long, languorous opening sequence, they attend a society ball where a tall stone, a parody of a suave seducer, tries to honey-talk the wife of the anonymous man. Meanwhile, the anonymous man gets a come-on from two aggressive and beautiful gems, before being called to the upstairs bathroom, where Victor, the millionaire who is giving the party, has a gem who needs a gemologist's help, and that's where everything starts tearing apart in the sick world that Canyon Capers is in.
