I'm playing Venetica right now and I'm enjoying it so very much!
It's a very good RPG/Adventure game from the developer's that brought us Ankh & Jack Keane. IMO Venetica is much better than anything they've done before.
Anyway, I'm in the Arsenal district and have just burned the Black Grimoire and been poisoned by that African princess, so now I have to go and find an antidote so I can continue my other quests!
