First of all, there's a significant lack of historical games since Kheops left the scene, and the setting of late middle ages sounds intruiging. Also, i thought Black Mirror 2 even with some story and design problems was quite a solid game, though i haven't played the third part yet. But if they can improve on some aspects, like they did after their first game - Mata Hari, then this could turn out to be really interesting. |
The graphics are beautiful. The storyline looks fresh and something new. Will watch developments on this game with interest. :)
I actually liked Mata Hari and thought Black Mirror II was better than the original (not played III yet, waiting for a price drop in the UK). |
Wow looks amazing I'll check this soon. I love the graphics and scenery.

First trailer
Can't say i'm all that delighted about the "comic-like" cutscenes trend instead of full animations, but backgrounds do seem nice. |
Looks wonderful! Thanks diego

In that sense, i'd welcome even slightly "amateurish" fully-animated videos rather than a series of still shots. But it's not that i'm saying that it can't work and look nice, too. |
Looks like a very interesting and well made game. A pitty that it will be the last Adventure game of Cranberry Productions.

I hadn't heard of it, but I liked Mata Hari so I'll keep my eye on this one.

Tell me that this is a joke, or even just a rumour? Why is it, that all the great things always last so little while! :frusty: |

(as if there wouldn't have been too many already! ...I mean... they have taken my little broher's life. He's tied to one game, in which he has to compelete some quest every two freaking hours! He's life's goal has changed to getting 100 level-character in that game, nothing else intrests anymore. He has stopped going to school, probably because he fears that it's going to disturb the leveling. These kind of games destroy the life or at least social life of people!) |
It's not a historical themed grand adventure without the balloon ride:
http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/4826/screen7l.jpg http://img851.imageshack.us/img851/6811/screen9t.jpg According to the news, the game has reached the "gold" status and German version is expected on February 3. |
The rope patter looks real bad on that balloon...actually the lighting looks pretty bad, especially the obvious photograph used for the shoreline.
Other than that, the game looks great. |
Glad to see the game scored 90 at ATreff. If first reviews are anything of a telltale, the first half of year is quite good with games like Deponia and this one, even though one should always be cautious before the actual English release.
http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/8582/zerzura13.jpg The critics praised the story and the characters (apart from their animation), but puzzle design as well which is a nice thing to hear since i thought Black Mirror 2 could be better in this segment. The other flaw mentioned is not-so brilliant cutscenes. |
JackVanian or tsampikos, can you please share the link to message board of Adventure-Treff where dtp made a statement about Cranberry. I don't speak German and can't find it.
