Editor's Album Notes:

The Promised Land CD-Rom game was released in 1996. In the vein of titles such as MYST, the game lets the player explore the islands where Promised Land was recorded. Players must find parts of the tri-ryche totem pole and save the world from nuclear destruction. During the game, players encounter areas where they can watch certain parts of Promised Land being recorded, and visit "worlds" of each band member within the game.

Overal, the two-disc set contains "Big Log" - a feature with 23 mini-documentaries and full-length videos for "I Am I," "Bridge," and Disconnected." Once the game is finished, the player is rewarded with the song "Two Mile High," a track recorded by Queensrÿche solely for this video game.
