It was released in Japan, but it was never brought over here. Don't know anything about the plot, but it would be really interesting to play a video game based on SEL.

How would a Lain game work? Was it a point-and-click like the Castle of Cagliostro game or did it take one element from the series and turn that into a game a la the PS1 Cowboy Bebop game?

I was told that it wasn't really a game, just some weird... explore Lain's computer type thing.

I have it.

It's basically a "interactive" comic book with 1-2 short animated sequences.

Not essential, especially if you don't speak Japanese. Most of the art from the game came from the series and the unique images were reprinted in a mook with all the game art...

I forget the exact title...
