A lot of the "artistic" element to IHNMAIMS (much easier to write, far harder to pronounce) is simply that Cyberdreams worked side by side with the original author of the novella to create this version of his work. The game as a whole primarily spawned from a simple question: why does AM choose these particular five people to torture?
Ah, my mistake. That would explain why all five are alive in the game.

Say what you will about the acting, but you can't fault AM's voice - it's Harlan Ellison himself, after all.
I'm referring more towards Gorrister and Nimdok. Gorrister sounds like a dry script read, and Nimdok speaks so incredibly slowly that I find myself skipping his lines after reading the text... and I *never* do that.
