New game for Restless adventurers announced

Adventure fans can start looking ahead to another new title, as UK developer Viperante today announced its debut production, a supernatural thriller called Restless.

The third-person, point and click adventure follows the story of a former criminal defense attorney named Kate Jones, whose life was ruined when she committed an unforgivable offense. Now burdened by guilt and shame, and having lost everything, Kate drinks heavily and is plagued by nightmares of a woman in pain. When a news clipping mysteriously arrives with a story of the young woman's disappearance, it includes a note that says, "If you want to help yourself, help her!"

With her fate clearly tied to the young woman's, players will join Kate as she "steps out of the shadows and into a deep and dark mystery involving police corruption, the local Mafia, secret experiments, family crises, lost love, missed opportunities, revenge, a life's work, frightening supernatural disturbances, and a mysterious and elusive former CIA neurologist known only as Janus."

Viperante calls Restless "a journey into the human soul, an examination of right and wrong, responsibility and retribution, and an exercise in just what it would take to evolve one person's entire personality completely." The game will reportedly feature high resolution, hand drawn backgrounds, more than a dozen interactive 3D characters, and over fifteen unique locations to explore across New York City and beyond, with graphic novel-style cutscenes interspersed throughout.

For more information about the game, be sure to check out the newly-launched official website. Restless is being developed for PC, and the target release date is currently scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2007.
