Hello Group!

About 10 jears ago I played a old DOS game but I can't remember the name of
the game. Maybe you know it...

I remeber it was one of the first VGA games that used speech and sound
output via the pc speaker. In the intro there was a cool sound and I think
it started with helicopter. It's like a adventure game and it plays in a
lunatic asylum or something. In the beginning you are locked in a cell but
you could escape through  the window and climb into another room and get to
a course. There where some attendants but sorry I can't remember more.

Can you help me?

I think the game you're looking for is called Countdown. If it's not, you might
want to ask in comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.adventure, as there are probably someone
there who knows.
