The entire game consists of 3D character models juxtaposed on pre-rendered, high-resolution backgrounds. Needless to say, you’ll enjoy this if you like adventure games, like mystery stories, or both. As they say in Sherlock Holmes, “The game’s afoot.” How does everything fit together, given all I’ve said thus far? I’ll let you discover that for yourself. Who has robbed Sir William’s grave? Did he break out himself? Who committed the murder? Is the supernatural really involved in all this? You’ll have to piece together the clues by alternating between the perspectives of Tim, who works outside of the law, and Briscol, who works with it. If they’re to survive the incidents, they’re going to have to solve this case. As it happens, Irish immigrant Timothy Moor and British detective Briscol each arrive in town at this tumultuous time… and both of them stumble right into two different sides of the great mystery. The man himself has left behind a horrid mark upon the town, and word of his grave being robbed and of a murder on the same night have done nothing but terrify an already frightened public. In the year 1894, the town of Plymouth, England becomes stricken with a powerful sense of unease in the wake of the funeral of Sir William Lewis. How groundbreaking is this game, though? Let’s go through the list and see for ourselves. We also have quite the series of brain teasers waiting for us as well in the form of various little puzzles while we, too, sort through the big case. What awaits us is a mystery so strange and complex, two people of very different backgrounds must work together to form a complete picture. Viva Media is set to release its newest title, Alter Ego, at the beginning of August.
