The 11th Hour, the much-anticipated sequel to record-selling adventure horror The 7th Guest, follows the path of mystery, desolation, horror and grotesque logic set by its predecessor. It is one of the finest examples of blending cinematic sequences with a 3D environment. The 11th Hour, in a fashion similar to The 7th Guest, features 22 wonderfully pre-rendered 3D rooms that took almost three years to craft. This challenging interactive story offers a wide array of games, puzzles and quests wrought by the twisted mind of the legendary Henry Stauf. Will you unearth Old Man Stauf's fate at last, or seal your own forever?

I still have warm memories of getting my hands on the new-release demo of this one near the end of '95, and it was...almost fun. Having never experienced 7th Guest, nearly all of the sequel's story was lost on me, but I wasted a fair amount of time on it while using my workplace computer, to boot. I'd be curious to see if it even boots on Steam now.
the FMVs are camp and the movement/navigation is an improvement coming from The 7th Guest. however, they doubled down on the diabolical puzzles with there being a handful of truly awful ones.
i'll dip my toes in with the fan game just to see the whole series through but i don't think i'll return to this in game form. might watch a youtube video of the video sequences though.
